Refinished Computer Room Studio Room Chair



While thrifting last month, I came across a very nice dining room chair that would work in my computer room. I got it cheep ($12.00 ) because the seat had a chewed place on the side, almost like a dog chewed it. I recovered the seat with some burlap from a large vintage coffee bean bag. I had enough material left over to recover another smaller chair that will go in the spare bedroom.

I have repainted both the computer room and the spare bedroom in the new taupe walls and white trim style. Both rooms look clean and fresh. I will post photos when I am finished.

Have a great creative day!!

A Sharp Yank On My Chain



It happens very once in a while. I was talking with my daughter, and mentioned I might buy some new tee shirts. Remarkable...she said why ??? When you come to visit, you always wear the same thing.

Had I fallen into a rut ???

I decided to dress the way I did when I first came to TEXAS. I call it Cowgirl Chic. I have laid out an outfit to wear the next time I go out. A cream color cotton skirt.....long denim blouse.....Leather and conch belt...loads of turquoise jewelry with either my boots or new sandels ( just painted my toenails )

I here by make a promise.......I will take more care when I go out to look nice...polished...finished. No longer will a tee shirt and jeans do.

Thanks for the "Jerk" darling daughter.

Have a great day !!
