Purple Pain, Purple Pain

Need a little jolt of excitment to spice up your afternoon? How about casting your eyes on a purple velvet couch makeover?

Brittany found this dusty relic at Goodwill for a mere $15 and said sayonara to the southwestern stripes with a plush purple. She literally put her blood, sweat and tears into it as she allegedly stapled through her finger with a high-pressure staple gun in the process. Yeowtch! All worth it in the end though!

See in on her blog Stephen and Brittany.
