It's A Chair, Not an Orange

I am attempting to recover a wing chair. I may have bitten off more than I can chew! I have taken LITERALLY, 300 staples out of this chair, one. at. a. time. For every staple I remove, I swear, two more appear in its place. I was sweating swearing happily working on the stupid, ridiculous, why am I even doing this chair when Carolyn came in from school and said, "Oh, Mommy! You are peeling the chair!
I can't believe I didn't take a before picture, but here it is in the living room at the cabin. Lovely, isn't it? If I ever finish it, I'll post an after picture.

You CAN do this! I know you can!! Keep "peeling" and just think of how cute it will be when you get your "quilted" fabric on it in the end! I CAN'T WAIT to see it! I think you can, i think you can . . .

I have two pink, yes pink patterned wing chairs that I would love to have recovered. Once you figure it out, you can do mine!
