When I was growing up I had ideas; however, I was continually telling my Grandmother that I wanted her couch in my house when I grew up.
- She would laugh in addition to saying that by the time I grew up, her couches would be so old that I would not want them.
When Grandma got older, she moved in with my aunt. Her matching sofas were still in her house in addition to she told me I could simply have them. Everyone else planned on taking all of her belongings in addition to either trashing them or sending them to goodwill. I had every intention of going to the house in addition to taking the couches in addition to maybe the matching chairs that all went with them all. Once I got my sofas in addition to chairs to the upholstery shop, all he did was whistle. He wanted to guess where I had found such appealing sofas. I told him about my Grandmother and he smiled. He said the couches were from the eighteenth century in addition to he had seen nothing so attractively preserved. He said he could put current upholstery on the multiple items in addition to adding some stuffing, although he was going to keep them as original as possible. It ecstatic me to hear he could restore my sofas in addition to chairs, in addition to I couldn’t wait to have them brought into my house. It’s the same house my Grandmother used to live in, in addition to the one I bought. When I got my sofas in addition to chairs back, I took the ottoman in addition to the steamer trunk in. I wanted to guess if he could restore them. When he showed up at the house, he was in awe of the amazing antique furniture I now owned. He said that if I ever wanted to get rid of any furniture, I simply had to call him first.
