LITTLE BLACK CHAIR

(Update on little black chair. 2/2/10)
I recovered it again recently.
Didn't like the white. Pictured above is the final product.
I'm not touching it again. It's finished. Really.

Such a sad little chair.

Sitting outside at Purrrfect Bargain Thrift Store. Almost in the rain.
Also found at the same store, a futon cover.


I hated to cut it up, but I didn't need a futon cover.
I needed upholstery fabric for this tattered seat cushion.

The staples wouldn't go all the way in.
I had to hammer them in the rest of the way.
I also managed to hammer my finger.
OUCH!

Bingo, I found a can of black spray paint in the shed.

Happy Chair!

Happy Ending.

QUIRKY IN QUORK

This lonely little cork lamp called out to me as I walked passed. "Buy me, take me home and make me whole again.... please." Well you know how I am about lamps. I don't care how ugly they might be or how much I DON'T NEED ANOTHER LAMP...when they speak to me, I cannot resist. I try, really I do, I just can't. I'll let the pictures tell the story.
