We were going to store it in the garage until I could get it re-upholstered, but I wanted to see how it looked in the living room. I didn't say anything to the kids - just let them discover it on their own. Each one came in and was surprised, then sat down and loved it. I can't keep them off of it now. It kind of bothers me that I don't actually know where it's been for the last 53 years (I bought it through a Craigslist consignment dealer), and I'm letting my kids crawl all over it, but I do love having it in the house. I'm actually loving the pink too.
Unfortunately, Mark's third furniture requirement is no pink.

LOVE it and I love it just like that.
Ster's requirement is no purple and we have purple everywhere. Whoops.
GREAT find!!!
Wow! That is a great find Sarah!
Brig and I are currently furniture shopping and I WISH I could find such a classic piece for $50. You are a deal machine. :)
Jenni, I'm thinking the pink might just grow on mark.
Kathleen,
Craigslist can be a treasure trove, or complete disappointment. Sometimes it's just not worth it.
This is totally a win and even better than I imagined! The pink looks awesome, too.
jamie,
yay! I'm so glad you like it!
