    How to Reupholster a Chair Seat

    ByMary Crozier March 15, 2022March 16, 2022

    Changing out the fabric on a piece of furniture is an affordable way to get a completely different look. Honestly, I have never done this. Any large upholstery projects are left to the pros. But in remodeling the pool house, the seats to antique chairs need a new look. This very pretty Victorian bustle back…

    Saturday Meanderings

    ByMary Crozier March 11, 2022April 19, 2022

    Every time I write a Saturday Meanderings I cannot believe another week has flown by! As I am composing this I am sitting in the waiting room at Superior Court of Arizona, recently summoned for Grand Jury duty. I have never done this before and it will be interesting to see if I am part…

    Removing Candle Wax

    ByMary Crozier March 1, 2022March 1, 2022

    If you entertain a great deal, then inevitably you will spill candle wax on a tablecloth. Like this time.  It’s my own fault.  After hastily removing candles from a table, the warm wax spilled all over my tablecloth.  This is one of my “special” tablecloths.  It was purchased during our first trip to Italy over…
