When is a chair not a chair?

When is a $15 chair from Ikea not a chair?

How about when it's  a table. :)

( Which reminds me, these look a lot like ones from a place that charges a lot more... I wonder what coat of spray paint would do?)

  2. Wow! Those chairs at Ballards are expensive...

    I'm thinking a black spray paint!

    Great idea. (As usual!)

  3. If I saw that chair at Ikea, I would pass it by as too modern or flimsy, or whatever crossed my mind at the time, if I even noticed it at all. Thanks for reminding me to think outside the box!
