have found some lovely things this week to put straight into the garage and a few that i am in the process of working on.  after pouring over the project section of grace bonney's beautiful and inspiring book 'design*sponge at home', i am trying my hand at some chair restoration.  hopefully you will see the results in the upcoming weeks.  design*sponge also have a fantastic website, check them out at  www.designsponge.com
