I'm totally coveting your chair. Gorgeous AND only $7 - no fair!

Hey Lisa! Yeah, I know — it was a good find. The trickiest thing about thrift shopping for me is always trying to picture the item outside of the thrift store. Seeing it on its own and not surrounded by all the other stuff (um, junk?). In the past, I've walked right by some cool stuff just because I couldn't imagine it in my home. This chair totally caught my eye right away — the blue fabric is so awesome.
