You: Um....Badness? There's nothing 'squee!!!!' about that chair.
Me: I know...it looks hideous, but try to look past the 40 year old orange and green weave upholstery. Look at the teak legs...look at the curve of the back. And trust me...this is the most comfortable chair I have ever been in. I bought it at Goodwill, 1..2..3....7 years ago. For five bucks. We had no money and we needed a chair. I fell in love with the shape of this one, and I knew it had potential. (I didn't know that I'd have to live with that fabric this long!!!) Anyway, the other day Hubs told me that he'd talked to one of his customers about my chair, and they'd offered to re-upholster it cheap! He told me to go buy fabric!!!!! Squee!!!! Imagine how beautiful it's going to look wearing this:


Here's the fabric hanging over the back of my beloved sofa, so you can see how they look together. (And if you're not sure about the pattern I chose, don't worry. I had to stare at it for ages before I could decide if I loved it or thought it was hideous. It's going to be fabulous....it's like one of those dresses that look like nothing on the hanger, but when you put them on? Va-va-va-voom! This is gonna be one sexy chair.
And don't look at the carpet. Hopefully it'll be the next to go!
