A creative accent for your home, this upright wooden chair, more decorative than functional, is a one-of-a-kind work of art. What are those pastel splashes of green, yellow and more that have been worked into an impressionistic floral design covering the chair? It’s a collage made from different varieties of an everyday item. (We’ll tease you with this hint: If you had bought them all of the pieces that star in this collage, it would have been big Bucks.)
