We are a Lazy Boy family. OH MY GOD...that is a huge understatement.
An orange plaid Lazy Boy was the VERY FIRST piece of new furniture I ever bought. I rocked both of my babies to sleep in that chair, and it had the place of honor in every home we ever lived in...
At some point, I got rid of the sofa in our living room so I could make room for FOUR Lazy Boy chairs...lol...
Right now, my #1 Lazy Boy chair is this green leather version...
|
I bought it at a thrift store... |
|
For $30...??!! |
|
This is Elliott, outside his house, enjoying his NEW Lazy Boy before moving it inside... |
|
This was one of my favorite Lazy Boys -- I loved it so much, I had it reupholstered. |
|
The back of a Lazy Boy lifts off in a very simple way. That makes them EASY to move -- I can fit one in my car!! |
|
I paid $20 for this pink velvet Lazy Boy. But, my boys told me I absolutely COULD NOT PUT A PINK CHAIR IN THE LIVING ROOM... |
|
Then, I had this genius idea...By taking the back of one chair, and the seat of another -- I created this "Franken-boy" chair. What do you think?? |
Yeah...I know....the boys were not fooled. Its still pink....
Because I usually buy my Lazy Boys at thrift stores -- and I find them ALL THE TIME...we occasionally must get rid of one.
But by the time WE are done with a Lazy Boy -- it's 40+ years old and nobody else would want it. So -- what can you do?? It is listing to one side, and the springs have come undone...
Yep. Time to have a fire...light it up, boys...

Really. A worn out Lazy Boy deserves the same respect as an American Flag. Or an American Indian... |
