The Couch Makeover

No time to blog lately!! Been busy with the normal stuff and back in January we found this set of furniture on craigslist. It was pretty rough but the guy wanted to sell it bad! So I didn't want to pay what he was asking...we left without it. Then a couple days later he texted me asking what I would be willing to pay! He was desperate because it was OLD and very beat up. So I told him $100 bucks for the couch, loveseat, chair,end table and footstool. Score! That was $200 less then he was asking. So every spare minute I have been sewing new slip covers! ( Just so you know I will not take on this kind of project again!) sewing sewing sewing! and then sanding sanding sandin! and then staining everything! Dan helped me sand and stain the couch so that went FAST! Anyway, now I have like new...very old furniture! that looks like this!
