For the Sprucettes, New Year’s resolutions are often based on sprucing up our own homes and 2010 is no exception! Amanda is reupholstering a Bergere chair for her living room. Tessa has some big plans for our favorite Schumacher fabric and one of her side chairs. And, I have 2 major projects to do.

First, my wonderful husband, Khanh, built us a great dining table!

Notice anything missing? Yes, chairs! I think dining chairs are going to be the first priority for 2010. I need to find a set of 10! Yikes! I’ll keep you updated as I get going with this project.

Secondly, I really would like a new sofa. Although I am super grateful for the hand-me-downs, I am ready for something that I pick out myself– and, perhaps, make myself. I’ve had my eye out for a while, but it’s time to seriously start looking. Hopefully we’ll be sitting pretty when the ball drops for 2011! Wish me luck!

1. Lisa's comment is:

   I would like to register for the upholstery class on Mar 6-7.
   Also when can I pick a chair from your selection or when should I have a chair approved?
   What type chair would you like or not like.
   And does the fee include fabric? If not will you tell me how much to get.
   Thanks, Lisa C
