January: Grandma's Curved-Back Chair



This chair also came from my mom's house, but before that I remember it being in the basement at my grandma's.  Don't know if it was a family heirloom, or one of my grandfather's "finds".  My mom had it redone for my bedroom just before I moved out.  Like the gold chairs, the upholstery was shot; in addition the seat was blown out, so Bill added plywood just before last year's graduation party so none of Megan's relatives would fall through it.  It has been a cat favorite for years.


Redone in the same small-pattern fabric I chose for the sides and back of the large sitting-room chairs, it's still a cat favorite.  The upholsterers removed Bill's plywood insert, and added double webbing so it would be both authentic and strong.  They also re-sized the cushion so it covers the entire seat area, and used super-heavy-duty foam.  Isn't it GAWJUS???

  1. It's luvly! I love that the cushions are all square and fluffed up again. They look so sad when they're squished.
