Computer Chair Rebirth

Do you have one of those Target torchiere lamps that you’ve been hauling around with you since college or maybe one of those boring black computer chairs that haunts you. If so, we think you’ll find Amanda’s redo of her old computer chair to be quite inspiring and it didn’t cost her a thing.

We found Amanda at her blog, Learning As We Go, where she discusses her discovery of parenthood and life as a stay at home Mom. Amanda started her blog to keep her family and friends who don’t live nearby up to date on her sweet son Evan’s life and development.

Now on to the chair…

Thanks for playing,
