New Old Couch….

Yeah, it’s the same old couch that I got off Craig’s list when I moved here about oh 18 months ago. But I got a new sofa-slipcover and wow, it looks fine now. Got it on sale for $50, and so instead of trying to get a new one, I have saved this old one from the landfill and I suspect that it will work just fine for awhile. I like that it’s the right color and it’s washable. Good with dog and cats and kids! Hahaha…

Now I just need to make that lovely freezer cover! And I promise not to cover the vents and all, don’t want it to freak out.

I got a new used vacuum this week too… my old one I have fixed about 5 times and I finally just got weary of it. I had to keep buying belts and the beater bar, and it was $25 a pop. So I called around, and found a great spot… the Fix-It Shop… and I got a perfectly good rebuilt one for only $39… and the best part? They took my old one and they rebuild them and donate them to Habitate for Humanity. That’s cool.

  1. That is nice – love the color. Have you thought about painting your freezer? Don’t know what color appliance paint comes in, but it might be a thought.

  2. I just thought of a tip for your freezer cover.. You can make the top of the front, close with velcro for easy access.
