My New Chair!

Check out my "new" chair!

Here is where I need to brag about my husband's talents a bit. He brought home a "treasure" last week that, suffice it to say, I was less than thrilled with. My only request was that it please go in the garage until he got around to working on it so that I wouldn't have to look at it. To which he replied, "OK, but just you wait til I am done with it." I was also told that I was not aloud to like the finished product since I was so skeptical about its ability to be turned into something decent.
Well, he worked his magic and guess what... I don't like it... I love it!

I really wish I had a "before shot" of the chair because right now you are probably having trouble imagining why I would doubt that this chair could be attractive. Try to imagine the brightest most vivid blue you can imagine and then... turn it up a notch. That is the color the chair was painted. The cushion was an equally vivid plaid with bright blue, green, pink, and several other colors thrown in. It was rather obnoxious, so please, don't judge me too harshly!
