Trash to Treasure

i took photos of this chair in the sunshine, it was left on the kerb in my street, just the cane chair without cushions. so it found it's way to my place for some new cushions.......i found 3 remnants at the local fabric shop, they make a lot of soft furnishings so always have leftover pieces.
the  inserts covers i made from calico & the outer covers from two remnants of velvet, with piping made from a piece of printed cotton...... this is how it looked when it was finished..... ready for a new home.  

 the fabrics......

 new cushions!
what do you think ?..... to paint or not to paint?
