Did Satan’s brothel have a yard-sale? Because I’m pretty sure that’s where Sharon picked up this sofa.
Oh, the stories that tattered red velvet could tell. But Sharon had faith that she could turn this lady from a tawdry past into a respectable member of society, even if no one else did.
She was right! What a classy gal! She removed the velvet and approximately one bimillion staples, then had it recovered in a gray microfiber weave. She painted the frame and antiqued it with wax, and that’s not all!
She did a chair too! Can you even believe she bought both pieces for $90 total!? Sheesh Sharon, next time Satan has a yardsale, let me know!
Check out the whole process on her blog I Restore Stuff.
