Last summer, with the boys in mind, and knowing that Bro would be settling into his own place soon, Walker and I picked up a couple chairs at a neighbor's rummage sale. The chairs were priced at $5 for the pair. It doesn't get much better than that. Walker took them apart before I snapped a photo, but here's what they looked like, minus a seat cushion with a pretty ugly gold seashell pattern:
Walker took the seats off, then sanded down the wood. A coat of black primer and two coats of glossy black paint completed Walker's portion of the project. Then Bro and I recovered the seat cushions, using purple Vikings print fabric for Cubby and a really cool textured tiger print fabric for Squeak. And here is what they look like now:

I haven't seen the boys' rooms all put together yet, but hopefully we'll get up there soon. The boys seem to love what we did for them. I have to remember my camera when we go, so I can share the end result.
