There is a blog I just found called “infarrantly creative.” I love home design blogs, especially ones that give how-tos and step-by-step instructions for projects in your house. This blog recently tackled a project of taking two chairs from a garage sale from blah to wow! This one is great because when we move I want to reupholster a chair I’ve had since sixth grade, as well as our couch and love seat. These are great instructions as well as pictures!

AMAZING!!! I love that you can take ugly junk and turn it into something beautiful for a very cheap price. The I just did that myself feeling is awesome as well. I can’t wait to re-do everything I have and show you my accomplishments. (well, ‘my’ being me and my mom and her compressor staple gun…hah!)
Here are the links for the five posts involved in this process:
