I knew buying this $20 rocking chair with the broken seat at that church tag sale two years ago was a good idea! It’s a nice chair, very sturdy and well made. It just lacked a seat.
All it took was a nice thick piece of foam, a yard of fabric, iron-on hem tape and some carpet-nails-as-upholstery-tacks.
Now we have a way to rock the baby without being banished to the front porch or the nursery. E picked out the fabric, as it is officially HIS “Old man chair”, not mine. TA-DA!
Rock and roll

Wow! You did an awesome job with that! Way better than my throw-a-couch-cushion-on-the-seat job.
Excellent! I have always wanted to spruce up some sad looking furniture. You did a great job – I love it!
