Penny's Vintage Home: New Chair for the Laundry Room

I have had the same chair at my desk in the laundry room for about 7 years. I saw this one at the auction a few weeks ago and thought I would really like a rolling chair at the desk, so I bought it.

It needed a paint job and new upholstery . H painted it a soft pink and I chose a Paris themed print to go with the existing decor in the room.

I sit here to fold laundry and also apply my make up and do my hair, so I wanted a really comfy chair.

The fabric is not upholstery fabric but it is a thick heavy duty fabric.

This is not a very good photo of the chair I used for all those years, but it's the first one I found in my pictures.

You never get too old to learn something nice and interesting. Never have known anyone that a desk and put on makeup in the laundry room. Yours looks so pretty and the chair is perfect.

Penny it is very pretty and I love your multi-purpose laundry room. xoxo P.S> I know a teenage granddaughter who would love the Paris theme chair too.

Penny,
This room just makes my heart go pitter patter!! LOVE it and I am so jealous that i do not have a Laundry Room...our washer and dryer are in the Powder Room, definitely behind closed closet doors!! LOL!!
The chair came out stunning!!

Hugs,
Deb
