I didn't just draw THIS ONE PICTURE...I mocked up about a dozen variations. The colors are: orange, pink, turquoise, yellow, and white.
It seems like I should make a zebra cording to put in the seam....
THEN -- I had this AH HA moment...
Those people on Etsy aren't selling NEW swivel chair mechanisms!!
THEY're scavenging them off chairs from thrift stores.
HEY -- ANY EXCUSE TO GO TO A THRIFT STORE...
Let's just hope my Ritaluck kicks in....

| NO PROBLEM, PEOPLE!! $30 at the Clinton Salvation Army!! And -- get this -- it swivels AND rocks!! |
Ross already picked up both chairs, so fingers crossed that he can turn the slipper chair into a swivel chair.
He said, "the problem will be that the swivel mechanism will be totally exposed, Mom".
I replied, "No it won't...I'm putting t-shirt fringe around the bottom..."
He rolled his eyes...but I don't think he was surprised.
So funny that even our grown children can roll their eyes at our ideas! (mine do too) :)
