Out with the old in with the new

I had been looking for a small chair to add to the living room...I wanted a small..older style chair that would match well with the rest of the room.  I found the perfect style of chair at Andy's parent's house. I believe that Connie had bought the chair at an auction.  When they found out that I liked it..they generously gave it to me ( that is just the kind of people they are and yes, I have the best mom and dad-in law).  When I got it home I noticed that the color of the chair blended in with the rest of our furniture so I decided to have it reupholstered so it would stand out.   The fabric I went with was not my first choice, but there is not too much to choose from at a fabric store in rural KY.  I am very pleased with how the chair turned out...and also pleased with the price: $20 for fabric and $35 to have it reupholstered.  We had some fabric left over which I plan on using as background in a picture frame.   I know, I know..I watch too much HGTV.
