Trash . . .

So last night I was coming home from an errand at about 10:00 and I saw these chairs in someone's trash. I drove by and did a U-turn. I had to have a look at them, and I thought they were cute so they went into the mom-mobile.


I have reupholstered things before, but the easy way. I have never torn apart a chair to re-upholster it. It was easy-peasy. The chairs are very sturdy and I had no need to add padding.

Whatcha think?

These are beautiful. Great find!

What is the difference between the A & H cleaner and regular A & H baking soda????????? Will they both work the same?

How great to give a new life to (still) good chairs! Talk about someone's trash being another's treasure!
