Originally my family room was going to take on a slightly nautical theme. I loved the idea of having a beautiful miniature sailboat in my living room. I had spent quite some time putting together what I thought was a fantastic start.
For a while now I have been looking for that perfect chair to sit in the corner of my family room. There is just one spot that felt so empty and was just crying at me every day to fill it with something beautiful. With a full house remodel in swing the option of going and buying a brand new chair for $200 or more was completely out of the question. So, it's was up to me to scour the yard sales, thrift stores, antique shops (which, between you and me can be almost as expensive as new) and the old favorite, craigslist.
