I feel the strongest nudging to give things a second chance. I know
this may seem the weirdest compulsion but I can't stand for things like this chair to be
thrown to the curb especially when he still has so much life left in him.
He did look somewhat like he was on his last leg ~ indeed, he was even minus a cushion. Yikes, actually my friend Gloria's dog ate a good portion of it. Despite the missing seat, I fell for the amazing lines of this fab mid-century modern chair and was so anxious for him to have a makeover.
After scouring options for fabrics to reupholster the piece, I decided to dress him in this rich brown corduroy.

You are so clever with words... it makes me think you have a relationship with every piece of furniture you bring back to life! This distinguished gentleman is stunning! :0)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Sharon ~ I appreciate your thoughtful comment. And he is ~ definitely a keeper! ;)
DeleteA diamond in the rough, in deed. I might not have given this chair a second look, but look at it now!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean ~ it was pretty unsightly! I generally root for the underdog though and this chair definitely needed some cheering on. :) Dana
