Hi Chris! You better believe there would be quite an interest in having your redone piece!!! But since the chair is so large and your pieces so little, I would check with some local interior designer shops and ask for any castaway remnants they don't want. Your time investment redoing the chair would be minimized and overall appearance would probably be better using larger pieces. Therefore, your giveaway item would be more appealing. Plus, there are lots of shops with scrap remnants they just throw away and would probably love for you to take them off their hands!! It'll be interesting to see what you come up with! Keep us informed!! There are people who are just looking for that kind of thing!!

:-D :-D :-D ;)
