Remember the last post? When I said I loved to get ugly furniture from good will and make it look nice? This is one of the things I bought this morning. Richard said if I wanted to furnish the front room, I needed to get it from goodwill or garage sales. So this morning I went to goodwill and found this footstool and chair for 25 dollars total! I bought the fabric from hobby lobby on clearance the other day, thinking I would redo my window valances. I decided after I bought the footstool and chair that I would flip the fabric over and put it underside up on the footstool. So the brown velvet would be on the design, and the cream color would be the background. I liked it. I hope you do too, but I will live if you think it is too busy, or not pretty. Because, you see, I love it. And it doesn't have to be perfect to be beautiful. I added the trim to cover the staples, as I couldn't take the legs off. It is a sturdy little thing.
This is what it looks like now.
I like it alot. Tell me what you think, unless you are being mean.
I am going to have a friend help me slipcover the chair.
I love having this obsession.
