It all started on a trip to the thrift store yesterday. Behold the chair:
But wait there's more: It's child-sized and it reclines!
(Yes those are hand knit socks)
Ugly as it is, for $12.99 I can't pass this up! Next door the the thrift store is a craft store where I found clearance upholstry fabric for $2.00/yd. Two bucks! And it coordinates with my home!

Some grunt work, a million staples out, a million in, new foam and batting:
And Voila! A new chair!
As I was icing my hand last night from staple gunning like a sniper, I don't forsee too many reupholstering projects. But it's nice to have options.
