Wow, Marti, that looks AWESOME!!!! I love to clean old stuff since it is so rewarding! (I will be *very* rewarded when I am done with ours, whew!)

Congrats on the end result! I'll bet it even smells much nicer.

we had our carpet cleaned and while the guy was here paid an extra 10 bucks for him to do our gaucho. It looks so much better, but I still would like to recover it someday. The area around the buttons is still a bit funky.

Are you doing curtains for anyone? If so, how could I get some nice ones to replace my poor tired ones?
