I had to go to a specialty upholstery store yesterday to get supplies for my living room redo project. While I was in the shop, a couple came in with a set of fabulous antique dining room chairs. They were upholstered in the a beautiful silk brocade. The woman at the shop told me they were worth at least $1000 apiece, they brought in 8 chairs. The wife explained that she had just inherited a dining room set and wanted to have them re-upholstered to match her couch. Everyone has different tastes so I could understand wanting to change the beautiful fabric, I wouldn't, but I do understand. However, this dumb bitch asks the shop lady to see what is available in vinyl and fake leather.

Nooooooooooooo. The shop lady and I had one of those moments, where two strangers cannot believe what they have just witnessed. The tasteless dumb bitch decides that green vinyl is the best thing. Not a deep rich green, but grass green shiny vinyl is what these beautiful chairs need. I thought I was going to be sick.
