I ate cake!
To be honest with you, it adds character to the rooms, little pieces here, big pieces there.
This is what we are hoping for. We have had to kill a bit of the character of our house in the renovation to make it more practical for us, but are looking to add a bit more in the feeling of the place. a couple well chosen items make a difference.
It is funny to think that my first apartment in Finland was furnished with very used and donated items, including the one plate, glass and knife and fork. It doesn't feel that great at the time, but having that place of my own here, completely changed my life in Finland. Without it (I had been living with a brother for six months as I was only going to be here 10 months), I never would have stayed.
I recovered my dining room chairs! YouTube and me. Shocked to learn that half of the cost was the fabric!
Yep. It is worse when you want to restore it to original. I was looking at some of the original fabric costs and there is no way...
