Bought this sucker in Utah before the move for $7.50
It's a rocker/spinner...and freakin ugly.
I removed all the awful fabric and the old stuffings...
so dirty and dusty!
I removed the buttons, the backing...
and a million staples!
I think furniture stores get paid per staple.
Okay, now we need stuffing.
I bought a clearance memory foam full size bed topper.
Perfect.
Cut the pieces to fit.
Then enter in woman's best friend!
Electric staple gun! Oh, I love you!
I started with this beautiful black upholstery with
embroidered damask. Hobby Lobby.
I did the under the cushion first.
I got a little discouraged because it was a tad crooked...
so entered in My best friend--Mike!
He swooped in like a knight in shining armor
and tackled that dragon!
All stapled. Some things are just easier with 2 people.
(see that beauty ottoman in the background?...it's next!)
Now to sew the cushion.
I cut a perfectly symmetrical pattern.
Only to find out that the foam for the chair is not symmetrical.
dang. Oh well.
Good enough! I have 3 kids. I can't over do
things that I know are going to be used...or I get weird.
Yay! We now call it the not so ugly chair!
Be sure to come back tomorrow!
I am guest posting my best idea ever!~
