I saw all these when I was out thrifting the other day, They all have great potential! The above could be painted black or white with a cute damask slipcover. Just close your eyes and imagine.
How cute would this little green monster be all slipped in canvas white with a pleated skirt? I can picture it now!
This is a perfect piece to slipcover! Box cushions with two little pillows...beautiful arms. Can you see it?

ReplyDeleteI'm gonna try to get the photos taken today!!! A sofa and a chair! Help me!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I have some ugly ones but they are stored up in my attic. Wonder how long it would take to get all the stuff off of them for a pic. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I should have hung on to that sofa I had in the early years. The pattern was a platter of grapes, violins, etc. Don't even have a photo of it but that horrid fabric is burned into my brain. :)
ReplyDeleteOh I see potential in virtually everything! Great competition idea!!
ReplyDeleteI just entered! Two more days of keeping my fingers crossed....ouch.

Haha! this is too funny. My wife thinks our couch is so special and everything, especially considering it's so confortable. But yeah, seriously, I think we'd win the ugliest couch contest easy.
