Today's project

[susandennis]

I had some muslin left over from the Labor Day Closet Project. And I have 3 ladder back rush seated chairs. They are kind of antiques. The first house I ever bought was furnished with old stuff. I was dating a furniture restorer at the time and he said these chairs were the only thing of any value. Anyway, they need to be refinished now and the rush needs to be redone.

Betty loves them. She sees no difference between the rush and her scratch box. She's killing them. So Now they are safe.

Thanks! They really look nicer than I thought they would. Again... why in the world didn't I do this years ago. Sigh.

Looks great!!! Has Betty looked at you like you are evil yet?

[susandennis]

Not yet... but then I had some towels over the rush part for the past couple of weeks so I think she'd given up the ghost as far as having antique scratching chairs.

I scanned the first line to read "I had some muslims left over." And wondered what you had done with the rest of them....

While that is pretty hilarious, the really funny part is when I wrote it, I didn't think muslin looked right so I when to my quick and dirty 'spellchecker' - Google and typed in "unbleached muslin" to see if it was right. I got some very srange references having to do with muslims and then realized that I had, in fact, typed in "unleashed muslim" ... Freudian or just spelling disabled....
