    Look how easy to redo this wardrobe -- a vintage fan quilt was rescued for new life in this door. So simple and so effective!

    Here is an upcycled vintage doll chair using vintage doily with new fabrics. An apple shows the scale of the chair. :D

    One of those chairs would be beautiful in a Guest room or great in a quilting shope to display their products! Thanks for sharing and for the ideas.
