Isn't this chair beautiful! It's from
Skona Hem via
Decorology. I love everything about it.
And, now moving on to some not-so-beautiful things; some 1/2 way projects of mine that I'm currently working on. I'm recovering my dining room chair seats. Out with the orange striped fabric I once loved (and only paid $3 a yard for) and in with the new...hope to post about it next weekend.
Guess I need to sweep and caulk the baseboard while I'm at it.
The bureau in my entry that I'm changing from worn 60's yellow to green. Sad, but the truth is I started the first coat November 2007. Also hope to post about the completed version soon. You see I'm going with the "expose yourself so you stop procrastinating" method.

oh, I can't wait to see what fabric you chose for your chairs! Any hints?
Linda - Hi. I'm on a big use what I have, don't spend money kick so I'm using raffia fabric that is left over from covering a wall in my bedroom. It's staw colored. Nothing dramatic but it seems to be working. Hope to post pics later this week.
Ha! let me know if that method works...'cause then I'll try it!
I've used that big-talk strategy of self motivation for years--with varying degrees of success. I think you have to be so convincing in public that you start believing in your own rhetoric. Politicians do it all the time.
I think you can do it.
I have faith in you too, Michele - I'll send you positive reupholstering vibes this weekend for good measure! Great to see you today at the blogger event - hope to see you again soon!
Oh, those unfinished projects!!! I have many of them too.
I love this French Bergère on Sköna Hem. Love to have one myself, Ingela
Show us the chairs... when you are ready.
That chest.... I would have changed the color 12 x over. I could see it in a gorgeous palladium blue with neutral undertones...that is if you have not completed it yet....fun project!
I am painting my office that very same fresh green:)
Ha! I might have to use your procrastination exposé - let me know if it works!
That Skona Hem chair in top photo is to die for!
