Yes I'm Alive - Not that You're Still there! Ha!!!

I'm not gonna say much about why I haven't blogged in over a year but I had several good reasons.  However,  I would like to start checkin  in from time to time.   I thought I would just real quick like share my Anderson family's heirloom chair.  The hubby and I recently gave it a new life.  It used to be orange and tufted.  I love orange and I love tufted but this was just out of date.    SEEEE!    yah!


 BEFORE
 
    I mostly wanted to share it to get some good opinions on what if anything you think I could add to it.   While I realllllly love the fabric and I am pretty proud of the hubby and I's job that we did on the reupholstering -  I'm not sure that I love the stark white of the wood.   What do you think ?   Should I antique it a bit with some dark stain rubbed into the cracks and dents.     ANY ideas???  


AFTER


Don't pay any attention to that spray foam in the brick vent over there.  Great work honey buns!   I'm gonna paint that - one day!!!     We've done alot of updates in this room actually.   Hubby recently put in that mantel/shelf system over my fireplace for me to break up the brick.  It's wonderful - I'll share more on that later.      

Thanks for stoppin in!!!
