A Few Favorites

I'm becoming obsessed with my blue room, every since I finished the couch I've been itching to reupholster all the other furnishings.
This is a post about pink Saturday though, join Beverly for others who like me....enjoys sharing their pinks too! This is one of my upholstering projects, it will be my second time restoring it. I have no idea of the age because it was another Goodwill find, I really wasn't looking for a chair at the time because I had no room for it, but the poor guy that was in charge of keeping the floor in the store organized was tired of moving it. Maybe as a joke he offered it to us (while lifting it again), for $1.99 and we foolishly took him up on the offer. I recovered it with this lovely pinkish rose fabric and placed it in the office for my employees to sit on when they arrive for their workload. Big mistake. Heating oil service technicians don't always stay clear from soot and over time the arms and the left wing became too stained, too quickly. I have another pink ribbon/rose fabric picked especially for to new cover on this chair.

I love these pillows, I made them all except the satin one, my mother in law made that one for a Christmas present. The little black one I crocheted about 20 years ago, it was a first attempt at the pineapple pattern. I goofed it, the pattern is supposed to lay flat but instead mine curled like a hat. So the plan changed and it became this adornment for the black velvet. At the time I was so proud how vintage it appears, today it is vintage! I also had to pry it from Madame, I didn't realize she had it until I was mentioning it's location to my hubby.

I made the brother and sister dolls too, they sat in the dining room until they lost their spot to another doll! Moving my collection around is what I do. C&G Design
