Chair-ity: June 2012
http://chairity.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 25, 2012. The Tortoise and the Chair. The story that I'm referring to is actually called. The Tortoise and the Hare. But I have been a little "slow moving" this week with furniture (like the tortoise), however, this chair was a fast project (like the hare)! This piece of furniture was donated by my family in St. Joseph, MI. I am continuing to be surprised and humbled by how many friends, family, acquaintances, and strangers have offered to donate to the Chair-ity cause. Tuesday, June 19, 2012.

Chair-ity: About Chair-ity
http://chairity.blogspot.com/p/about-chair-ity.html
It all began with a car ride. Recently, after listening to a radio broadcast of Dave Ramsey, my husband told me a story about a man who was making a difference in his community and his financial freedom by flipping furniture. His story inspired me! I could do that! Donations from people like you and I allow Hospice to give quality care to people who deserve to be comfortable during the last phase of their life. It is estimated that it costs Hospice around $150 per day, per patient to cover medication...

Chair-ity: Pull up a seat, take a load off your feet
http://chairity.blogspot.com/2012/07/pull-up-seat-take-load-off-your-feet.html
Friday, July 27, 2012. Pull up a seat, take a load off your feet. I was lucky enough to have these really cute ottoman pieces donated to me! As I was working on them however, I decided that they could serve a dual purpose as stools for children to use as well. (I'm tempted to use them in my classroom! After tightening up the loose screws, adding a little paint, and recovering the cushions.I think they turned out super cute:). The stools came to me with a light pink fabric and a dark wood base.

Chair-ity: Old School!
http://chairity.blogspot.com/2012/07/old-school.html
Wednesday, July 11, 2012. Unfortunately, Will Ferrell does not make a cameo in this "Old School" posting:) We're talking about an old school chair that was donated to me today from someone in the Wings of Hope Hospice family. The chair came to me with rusted hardware and legs and scratched up wood. After a little "Chairity" TLC., sanding and staining, here is the final product! July 12, 2012 at 5:05 PM. This is so cool, honey! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pull up a seat, take a load off your feet.

http://chairity.blogspot.com/2012/08/goodwill-hunting.html
Wednesday, August 1, 2012. No, not the movie.I was Goodwill hunting today and found this cutie-pie buffet table for such a steal! I have been wanting to redo one of these and the stars must have aligned for me today because it was ready and waiting for me when I arrived to the furniture section of Goodwill. Finders-keepers! SoI hope you don't think that my buffet table is boring, but here she is. It was a 1 hour redo! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Picture Window template. Powered by Blogger.

Chair-ity: We've hit the BENCHmark:)
http://chairity.blogspot.com/2012/06/weve-hit-benchmark.html
Tuesday, June 12, 2012. We've hit the BENCHmark:). As a teacher, I am always setting new goals to ensure that my students make their reading and math BENCHmarks. It only seems appropriate to say that I think I've hit the furniture BENCHmark tonight! Earlier this evening, I happened to drive by a garage sale and I found this bench listed as $15. After a little bartering and some "small talk" I was able to drive away with it for just $5. Booyah! As my husband would say:) ). Or post me a message!
