A Real Example of NU2U
Last Summer, my Husband and I were out yard sailing (or treasure hunting). Just as we were about to give up on the neighborhood we were in, we stopped at one last house. At this house I spotted the most beautiful and yet pitiful chair. I fell in love with the wood and the slight detail on the legs. Needless to say we bought it for $15. I knew we got a great deal. Unfortunately we didn't get a picture of it before we refinished it.
When we got the chair home, I couldn't wait to strip it and give it new life. When we removed the shower curtain that was used as the seat cover and back cover, we discovered that the chair was older than we originally thought. The seat and back were made of hay! I was shocked, I had never seen a chair like this before. The chair itself looks like a regular arm chair, only it was put on rockers.
After stripping and re staining it, we made a new seat and back, it looks like new! I love it. I'll bet if I decided to sell it now, I could get a heck of a lot more for it that the mere $15 I paid for it. This is the prime example of Nu2U and why my husband and I like to recycle. No way could we have bought something like this chair if it looked like it does now.
