The tale of two chairs

There once were two chairs. They were pink and purple and decorated with pretty princesses. They were best friends with a little table that matched them perfectly. Many, many hours were spent by these three friends enjoying lovely girly events like tea parties with their favorite princess and her subjects.







Sadly, the chairs' friend the table lost a leg when Goldilocks sat on him. The chairs bravely tried to carry on alone, until one day, their beautiful prices was alas too tall to sit on them comfortably.

What was to become of these poor chairs?

Luckily, in the same kingdom lived an adorable, if ornery, little prince who was in love with Thomas the Tank Engine.







The chairs talked it over and decided that if they had a makeover and disguised them selves as train chairs instead of princess chairs, perhaps they could make the little prince fall in love with them and keep them safe in his castle.

First, they called their trusty friends cardboard and spray paint. They bravely amputated their own legs when cardboard suggested drill holes would make the perfect base for their legs to be painted a boyish blue while their bodies were painted a handsome red.

After two coats of paint, even their own mother would have had trouble recognizing them.

They carefully reassembled themselves and asked the prince's mother ( the Queen of the WORLD! you know) to go shopping for some Thomas the Tank Engine decor.

They invited the Thomas decals to live with them and their transformation was complete.

Indeed, the little prince DID fall in love with them.

And they all lived happily ever after.

The end.
