One of the days mom was here we wandered into the Habitat for Humanity - Restore store. I'd heard that they had all sorts of reusable treasures there for sale. It was true - there is everything from paint, to cabinets, to molding, to furniture. Some things are brand new, and some are used. The "used" stuff has a wide range too - some are barely used, and some are very, very used. We happened to be there and see the couch above. It is like new - we couldn't find anything wrong with it! I think it sat in someone's formal living room and was hardly ever sat on. We didn't have a vehicle with us that would carry it home, and we weren't sure we should buy it. We put a hold on it and went to lunch. We decided it belonged here, so when we went back to pick it up the chair was there too! It also had very little wear - and you couldn't beat the price for a leather chair - $65! So for under $220 our living room has a new feel to it. Thanks mom!
