Getting There

I'm slowly, but surely getting my house together.
You see, I have a terrible disease called....
DECORAPHOBIA -fear of making a mistake decorating
so you do nothing.
I took a terrific leap of faith by buying curtains and
nothing bad happened so I went ahead and 'gulp'
had an old chair reupholstered. I actually chose fabric
and everything. Here is how it turned out:

I love it, love it, love it!
So, now, a YEAR later, I took another leap and decided to get
some more furniture fixed.
Here are my chaise lounge and another favorite chair.


The fabric is flocked and the cushions are down - so comfy!
That pillow on the chair, I had that, it lives there.
And yeah, I know...wicker in the house....what do you want from me?
I'm going with the shabby chic look I guess.
Now this chair came out so well, I can't believe it.


It's a very old chair, it was dark brown with horrible pleather like stuff covering it.
Now look how beautiful it is!!! It's perfect in our bedroom.
Look at the terrific work the man did.
Wow, my pics are terrible, I have to learn how to use my camera.
Any suggestions? (canon rebel)

You can decorate. And I happen to like wicker. When I was in college, my whole apartment was decorated in it!
