They'll Be Done by Thanksgiving

I had such a great weekend. My friend Karen came to visit. We've known each other since our college days, and even though we only see each other about three times a year, we pick up where we left off as if we had just visited the day before.

So Friday night, we were considering our options for Saturday which included canoeing around the lake with Karen paddling and me lazing in the back covered in sunscreen -- or to re-cover the dining room chairs.

We chose to recover the dining room chairs. We love a project.

These chairs really need it. They've seen fifteen huge Thanksgiving dinners, and Easter Ham-O-Ramas, and Christmases.

Karen helped me choose the fabric. I decided to go with a darker color. 

There were three layers of stapes in those chairs!

I love the results. Two down and six to go.
