  I thought it would be fun to put my  favorite furniture re dos of 2011 in one post. My first favorite is the painted ottoman it's still getting hits everyday. I was really nervous about this but it turned out great.

    Oh gosh I remember when you posted about the ottoman. I can see why it's still popular. The pic of your transformations together looks like it's straight out of a magazine. Well done! Wishing you all good things in 2012. Happy New Year!

    The chair is wonderful, the combination is just perfect. I have been on the lookout for a chair like that and you have given me the idea of how to recover it. The back is simply lovely. Enjoy Kathy
