I had gone to Goodwill to donate some clothes from my long-weekend closet-cleaning project. Since I was there and was actually planning on looking for a chair somewhat like this at an estate sale sometime, I decided to sniff around at the Goodwill store. I was giving Ugly Chair a good looking over, wondering if I had the skills necessary to make it Pretty Chair, and ol' boy who looked to be in Goodwill's employ kept walking around. I asked him if he knew anything about this project I was considering.
"No," he replied, jerking his head toward the back of the store, "But Darnell does."
"Is it easy?" I continued.
"Well," he said, "Darnell makes it look easy."
It was clear whom I needed to speak to. A few minutes later, Darnell was giving me a class on how to make Ugly Chair into Pretty Chair.
Will keep you posted.
