Kate Miller

ChairsByKate was created during the summer of 2006, following a remark from a friend concerning a finished chair that I had made a few years previous. She thought it so exciting and unique, and with the encouragement of family and friends, I began creating pieces for the public.

I explore antique stores, estate sales and every out-of-the-way place I find looking for a chair or desk that possesses the personality required to be the base of my art pieces. Then comes the match-making process of choosing a covering paper of patterns, highlighting children, sports, floral, classic themes and much more, to bring out the very best of the underlying chair or desk.

The process of finishing an art piece includes sanding, repainting, repairing, upholstering and applying a child and pet friendly sealant to ensure the beauty of the piece will last for years to come.

You can be assured that my pieces receive lots of tender-loving care from first sight, to which paper they are clothed in, to adding the finishing touches and sealing for a happily-ever-after with a good and loving family.
