Side chairs into mid-century-ish club chairs
February 8th, 2010 admin
Tim gives a new mid-century twist to these side chairs. “I’m not sure what the Ikea name for these side chairs is, but they were old and wobbly and the back legs were breaking off. I made a simple base out of 2×10’s and used the original arms from the ikea chair as a curvaceous way to hold up the back and keep it strong. My wife, Susan, stitched up … … the leather slip covers based on the old (removed) ones. She actually used some leather from a discarded Ikea leather upholstery sample. Now they’re comfortable, low armless loungers.” the old Ikea armchair

Leah's Nursery...A clip of Leah's Nursery. Still have to put some things on the walls, but it's more or less done. It has been challenging creating a space for her with a small space already, but we did it. We're definitely unconventional people, so we didn't buy the traditional changing station. We bought a book shelf from IKEA and turned it into our changing station. There's no closet in the room so we bought another IKEA bookshelf and turned it into a mini closet and storage space. We wanted to buy things that she can also grow into and use as she gets older. She only has 0-3 mo. things in the room, everything is in storage. There was absolutely no room for anything else. It's a blessing in a way...we learn how to use the space we have and not clutter..lol. DIY lamp shade for under $3 DIY Bumper pad + changing pad cover - $30 DIY drawer storage (underneath crib) - $13 both bookshelves - $150 wicker basket - $8/each chair - free (had it for a while and was not using it) crib - $80 paint - $20 wall decor - $20 Gotta get creative when money's tight and with limited space =)
