Being Resourceful
So it looks like we will be in our house for awhile. I think when we moved in we had a 5 year plan.With this economy and the housing market, I think we might be here awhile. Anyway, it has made me want to do little projects around the house. I am in the process of re-doing my living room. A couple months ago my brother gave me the table that was in my house growing up, but it didn't come with in any chairs. For the last little bit I have been pricing things and watching sales. Although I saw some great deals I just couldn't bring myself to spend money on it. On Sunday while playing outside with the kids i noticed we still had chairs from almost 3 years ago (we found 4 chairs and a table on the side of the road(yes! I have zero pride)-we cut the legs from the table to make a kids table-pictures of that later). I decided to get resourceful. Total Cost $25.00 and that was mostly the paint, the fabric only cost $6 bucks. Obviously this is not my first choice for chairs for this room, but for now it will do.

That is so funny, I am re-doing mine right now too! Yours look awesome!
I love them - it looks so pretty - and the table is a good one. I have chairs that have been in our family over 100 years. They are old rickety and loud but I love them.
Wow. Good job. Looks great.
