Refurbishing Inspriration

Our goal is to decorate our home for as little money as possible. First, because we don't have much money. Second, because we don't want a lot of debt. Third, because it is fun! Well, I think it sounds like fun...we'll see.
I have been looking for DIY furniture inspiration. Here are a few good examples:

On Nest Egg a wingback goes from something you'd see in granny's parlor to slipcovered fabulousness...

Or as seen on I Suwannee "Holy Wingchair"

Craigslist Find - Could have, should have...

How cute is this settee and pair of chairs?
They are just adorable to me and Mom agrees. Perhaps I love them even more, knowing that prior to appearing online they had spent many years in a happy home on Ridge Road in Raleigh.
Well, the best finds on Craigslist never last long and these beauties were no exception. Oh well, maybe next time around.
