My Famous Chair

So I have recently decided that I need to move out sooner or later. Hopefully the economy slowly gets better.. but I want to move out this summer after graduation. Welll... sometime last weekend, for the heck of it.. I decided to go on craigs list and take a look at the furniture ads. A lady posted a listing for this adorable leopard chair for $50!!! Found out that this lady was a set decorator for movies and TV shows, and this chair was not only in Legally Blonde, featuring Reese Witherspoon (who sat in this chair) but has also been in other movies!!! Not only does this chair fit my personality, but it also starred in Hollywood. How neat is that?!?! Cindy and I drove down to Venice this morning to go pick it up.. and it's recently residing in one of Grandma's spare bedrooms until I make room for it. =) But I can now say, that I own a piece of furniture.. besides the stuff in my bedroom! Yaaaay!!!

P.S. - This chair is in great shape, and well worth the $50. The lady actually said the material is worth $75 a square foot... so I definitely got a grrreat deal! =)

The labor... ugh
spending the day with Val... priceless!!!!

Not sure how we made it to an unknown place without our usual mishaps!! Maybe it's the familiar places that do it to us... aren't we ON Haven?!

I know I'm a little late in congratulating you on your chair... but congrats! I can't believe you now own a chair my darling Elle Woods sat on!!!!
