The Beast is Back

I had to make a special trip and bring home the BEAST.

Several months ago we dropped off my husband's Lazy Boy at the upholsters.

Oh yeah it is back. More heavy sarcasm!

I picked a pretty cream fabric with design for the front and white denim for the sides and back.

I will be painting the base and the handle white this weekend.

Mr. M. is very happy to have his chair back.  He agreed to the fabric choices so he could keep his chair.

I will agree that it is very comfortable and it lasted through three children being fed and rocked in the chair.

BUT

I still HATE this chair.

It takes up so much room.

Put it in the basement you say, well I did think of that too, but I kind of whited up that room too.

Poor Mr. M. - that is what my girl Sara is saying, I just know it.

So the chair stays upstairs and I am ok with that.

For now!

I do love the ruffle at the bottom.

To take away some of my frustration, I decided to visit a few fun shops.

I was able to find a few treasures, I usually am lucky like that.

A good bounty for a great price.

Seriously, can anyone have too much ironstone.

This little guy looks great in the kitchen.

A new chippy wood shelf for the basement, I am not sure if the blue is staying yet.

This little tool holder is going to be used for silverware and necessities for having dinner on the deck.

Overall I had a good day out.

Now the chair is home and we have happy husband.

Funny thing is, he is the one throwing telling the kids to stay away from his chair with their dirty hands.

So, how about you, do you have one of these chairs to decorate around?
