    Fantastic Job Candy!!
    Santa will be thrilled to sit in his chair!
    I have upholstered pieces but nothing as complicated as this, and not nearly as well.
    I'm so glad you you are happy with your new job. Congratulations, again.

    Thanks everybody!!
    I have upholstered chairs, sofas, loveseats, benches, etc. but always for myself. This is the first time I have done it for a job.

    I am very blessed to have this new job.

    Did I mention that I actually got to meet Karen and get an actual (HUG) not just a cyber space one!!!

    She is as beautiful in person as she is online and her home was wonderful. It was so nice to put it all in perspective and know how all the pieces from her photos fit together.

    TTFN,
    Candy

    Thank you, Candy. It was so GREAT to finally meet you (and your DH) in person after all these years. And get some REAL hugs! Perfect that you were passing thru Phoenix and close enough to stop by for a bit. You sure made my day.....I felt better after you left than I had in a long time. You are "good medicine", need you to come back. We'd have a blast shopping at that big antique mall near me!
    I take terrible photos most of the time, but I'm so thrilled to have this one of us (thanks to your DH).
    hugs, Karen

    Santa won't want to take a break, but he might nap in that beautiful chair! Great job doing what you enjoy! Nice pic of the 2 of you & Karen's lovely fall decorations. My phone went dead a month ago & then computer wouldn't come on when it was fixed until guy came back yesterday. So I'm slow seeing all this. Sorry! So glad you got to meet in person!. Jan
