She used to be denim then we reupholstered her into this caliente number! Fancy, right? Seemed a perfect fit for my then-teen's bright blue bedroom and her effervescent personality. Yet as you know she has been on her own -- an independent young woman -- for quite some time. Last week I got around to covering her cheery walls with a soothing, rich, cafe-ole color. Now, the chair has to change.

Behind her bedroom door, right smack-dab in the middle of the wall lurks a one-inch square nod to her past. Silly, yes! But never, never a dull moment here. You can see how the bright colors on the chair used to fit perfectly in her bright blue bedroom.
I haven't completed the make-over but the fabric looks more--uh,
mature. And if you squint you can imagine what she'll look like when she's all finished.
I'm only speculating but I'm guessing we'll have many late night chair-n-tell sessions as she curls up in this comfy seat and her sister and I sprawl out across the bed. I'll be the first to fall asleep. Goodnight, Moon!
Lovely post! It was sweet to leave that little square of color! Hope the chair turns out great!
