'Tis Been A Weekend Of Project Procurement Here At Mr. Modtomic. It All Started Friday Night After Work When I Picked Up This Danish Style Lounge Chair. Status: Late Night Pickup.
Like I really need more projects around here, but you know the old adage: Strike While The Iron Is Hot. My greatest fear is that C-list does something stupid to ruin itself and that well runs dry. I feel much more comfortable with a buffer of "stuff" should disaster strike.
Plus, this is a cool looking chair! It's got some great details like the up-swept arms and the angled rear
legs. It's sporting sturdy construction but lacks the usual capacity to be easily broken down that you find
in many of these chairs and I didn't find a maker mark upon quick inspection. When I get around to
cleaning it up further I might find out who made it though.
The cushions need to be cleaned and I wish that they had zippers so I could just toss the covers in the
washer. As it stands I'll have to use my carpet / upholstery cleaning machine on 'em. We'll have to see
how that turns out later. I may just go with new cushions in the end. I need to learn to make covers for
cushions anyway...or find an upholstery guy! Oh, and like I said...this isn't the only cool project I picked
up and need to get started on this weekend. More to come!

Good looking chair! Even if these had zippers you'd have to pop the buttons and retie them after cleaning.
