Feeling Adventurous

Tonight is the night my reupholstery adventure has begun! As you can see, this recliner was not in the best shape before I began my ambitious mission.




BEFORE


AFTER

I know it doesn't look like much, but I'll tell you what!! Boy!! I have a pile of staples the size of a miniature Mount Everest!! ( I didn't think to photograph it, but I will next time)
So, this recliner was given to Ian, by a member of his family, and you would not believe what discoveries I have found!!

The house phone just cracks me up!! I also found a bottle cap, but Ian threw it away before I could take a picture of it.


After all of that hard work, I only used a hammer, flathead screw driver, and pliers, I walked away with only a small, yet very long, scratch on my finger! Not too shabby for a first timer if I do say so myself!!

I have to be at work earlier than usual in the morning, so for now that is all the updates I have, but don't worry!! I'll keep you posted on my adventures as they continue. (and they MUST because I have a recliner in shambles on the living room floor at this very moment, so there is NO going back now!!)
