My MIL found it on the side of the road. It's really sturdy, wood, but it was painted white with blue hearts and things all over it (very country). So I spraypainted it black to use as a computer chair!Second, I started painting the trim in our third story. That is turning out to be a pain in my tush! But it must be done.
