Band of Zebras
Oct 10, 2011
Hello! How was your weekend? Pretty cool and groovy? I hope so.
So, were you in band in high school? I wasn't, but I envied those kids carrying around their velvet-lined instrument cases. I have zero point zero musical talent, so it was all a big mystical mystery to me. What's in there? How do you make it play? So intriguing!
Ann's daughter's case was looking a little beaten and goo-ey, so she thought she'd give it a little more appeal first by de-gooing it and fixing the nicks and dings with a Sharpie, then by adding some fun with vinyl zebra stripes! I bet all the cool kids will be doing this soon! Extra credit: can you guess what instrument this case is for?
What's that? You ordered TWO servings of hot zebra sassiness? Coming right up!
This chair is Lori's first ever reupholstering attempt and I think she did a fabulous job, even if the experience involved tears and heavy drinking. Read her hilarious account on her blog Sort of Creative.

Love that Clarinet case! Might have to dig mine out just to do that to it! Bet my son wouldn't be too happy if I did it to his Trumpet case though. Bummer.

The case & chair turned out great!
Definitely a clarinet case... I LOVE it! Both projects are awesome!
Looks like the clarinet case I had in High School!

What a great chair after, I sooo want to makeover a button back chair but am too scared. Was looking for inspiration and i think a few vinos maybe the courage i need!
I'm thinking Clarinet case. Unless you're going to trick us by using an Oboe case. :)
Smarty-pantses! Yes, it's a clarinet case!
Dang, why didn't I do something cool to my clarinet back in high school?
Definitely Clarinet ... I'd love instructions as to how to do this ... my daughter would DIE for this case!!
