I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the rug. |
My favorite Lazy-boy was probably 20 years old when I bought it (I paid $40)...the color is great, but there are some rips in the faux-leather... |
And this swivel chair ($10) is pretty comfortable. The duct-tape treatment was fun for awhile -- but it also could use a new upholstery job... |
So, of course, you heard my BIG IDEA...I'll order five or six swatches of various fabrics -- turquoise, hot pink, orange...and then, I'll have somebody reupholster my favorite chairs, using different colors -- the side one color, the back another color...you know....we'll "Rita-fy" these chairs.
I was following a local upholsterer on Facebook -- and I sent her a few pictures.
Here's the price, people....with ME providing the fabric....
The swivel tub chair would be $550...
The Lazy boy would be $750.....
I texted back..."you are a dream crusher..."
I think with a staple remover and a staple gun you could get the job done and have fabulous unique chairs.
