Old Chair, New Life

I was visiting one of my favorite consignment shops here in Dallas and found this little gem of a chair. It has some serious upholstery issues, but I love its shabbiness. When my brother was last in town, he promised to teach me how to reupholster furniture. He's a genius at this kind of thing. So, when he's here for Christmas, we'll see what we can do about the wear and tear on this sweet old chair. Isn't she a lovely addition to my office?

My mom has a chair just like this. Maybe I'll have to snag it...I'm thinking of taking an upholstery class because I have so many things I want to do and I can't wait for help. Great find!

The blue books are what got me interested! I dream of a library of my own someday.
