It's an insult to the ebeniste. It even appears to have an inlay that has been covered with the gray maquillage. It is unsettling and distressing for me to look at.

Love their names :) It is challenging decorating when you have pets in the home--we have 3 cats, and there are certain items that I have to keep under glass or at a safe height so that curious felines don't get into them. Solid dark colors usually don't work for us, due to cat hair showing up on it. Covers and slipcovers that I can vaccuum and pop easily into the wash have worked well for us. Can't wait to see how you redo your chair!

As for me the canvas duck, the white, or grey would be my choice, so this chair could move about different rooms and areas of your home if need be. The idea of refinishing your dark wood is a fabulous idea, giving this chair the right kind of rightness.<br /><br />Your post and including your creature friends was so laughable, you put a entertained smile on my face while reading, you have such a natural way of entertaining us :)<br />Thank you for sharing, looking to see what you will next inspire, and also really looking forward to the facelift you give your chair, not any chair this is a chair to love.<br /><br />Xx<br />Doré Burlap Luxehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16134718817693134037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2928007866208585066.post-13773617499696979502013-01-31T08:49:37.188-08:002013-01-31T08:49:37.188-08:00what a great piece; I'm glad the velvet is goi...what a great piece; I'm glad the velvet is going though!
