An adirondack chair that has been carted from my classroom, to our screened in porch, and then to the basement is going to be refurbished. Five years ago my 5th grade class surprised me with this chair, brightly painted with their signatures on the arms. It was really special and I kept it in my classroom as a much coveted reading spot for future students. As my class sizes grew, I no longer had room for it at school.
Anyway, I have other memories of all those great kids. I'm going to keep the chair, just repaint it and put it in the garden. It declutters my porch and makes good use in a different area. My challenge for you is to look at a piece of furniture that might be one too many somewhere in your house and see if you can move it elsewhere (no upholstered furniture on the porch, please) to decrease clutter and still make good use of the piece.
