Have you ever decorated with vintage pennants
or vintage varsity letters?
 | ||||||||
Jenn took an old chair and had it upholstered
in a black wool. Then she attached a collection
of varsity letter patches of all shapes and sizes.
Is this fantastic or what?

| Here is a better view. We had to use a ribbon to keep people from sitting on it too much at the shop! |

| One more close-up....couldn't resist. Such a great piece, Jenn! |

what great ideas! i am so glad to be included in your blog on pennants. thank you so much! i am going to get back to my stash of pennants now with renewed vigor! :) leslie
The chair is amazing! I've wanted to collect the letters for something smaller, maybe an ottoman, but the letters I've see are soooo expensive. Love the pillow pennant idea.
