For Christmas this year I want to do really personal gifts because they are the most fun and I think people enjoy them the most. So I was thinking for one of my friends I would go get a chair from good will and paint it and make it look like hello kitty because she loooves hello kitty. I want the back of the chair to be the face of hello kitty. Any ideas of how I could make it looks like that. I want it to actually take the shape of it not just be painted on it.
I loved Hello Kitty growing up! It may be hard to find a chair that is completely straight in the back as most have some sort of curve. If you find one the is straight. Attaching something on it. MDF is good because it's easy to cut and doesn't splinter. You can cut the shape of Hello Kitty's face with a jigsaw and then glue and screw it in to place. It may just be better to paint the seat. I know that isn't what you wanted but it is probably the best to do. You can paint the legs and back with fun shapes too. The good thing is that Hello Kitty stuff is pretty basic to copy and you should get good results. You could make a slip cover for the chair and attach Hello Kitty to the slip cover... If the chair has rungs, then just make a rectangular piece of fabric with ties and fold it in half at the top of the chair. Then tie it with the ties. Just another idea. Good luck. :)

hahaha... you can go to the chair maker... sorry, my grammer isn't good.....
hard issue do a search from yahoo or google that could help
If you can find a chair that has a solid back instead of rails, you could go to your local lumber yard and ask them to cut you a shape that will cover the top back of the chair, and glue it on. Or you could find a chair with a round seat and just paint the seat instead. Or if you get discouraged, just paint the chair the exact color of Hello Kitty stuff, and she can use it as a co-ordinating piece to go with what she already has. . .
