An Incredible Chair to Re-Mix

I can't wait to paint and re-upholster this potential beauty. I plan to use it in my "girly" guest room, which is predominantly white, pink, and bright green.

Vintage Furniture Find of the Day

I stopped at my local antique store today on my way home from errands and found this table for $10.80. Although it may not look like much right now, it will be a great TV/Media table for my daughter at college. Some paint, a pull/handle for the drawer and a cut-out for wires will make this table perfect to house a TV, DVD player, and DVDs in the drawer!
