For whatever odd reason, the Craigslist gods threw me a bone on Monday: my dream sofa was listed. Everyone who knows me knows I love leather sofas. And the Borge Mogensen 3-seater IS my dream of all dreams. And it was listed on Monday. And for a crazy reasonable price. And guess what, I got it!

When I saw this chair at The Haymaker Shop, it was love at first sight. As a die hard DIYer I started thinking about how I could make a version of this chair myself … More

Q: I've been scouring the internet trying to find a particular brown leather couch with no luck. It seems simple enough but evidently this couch is hard to come by. Could you possibly help me identify it? More
