1) Not too expensive (under $30)--I didn't want to spend a lot of money on a chair that she may or may not use and eventually out grow!
2) Not too big/bulky, not too small/dinky--I didn't want something that was so big and bulky that it looked like another piece of furniture, but I didn't want something so small that it fell apart when she sat in it (the girl loves to eat!).
3) Comfy--I want my little girl to be comfy when she watches her favorite video or PBS cartoons (Clifford and Curious George are her two favorites!). I promise my daughter doesn't watch T.V. all day...but when she does have that need to sit back and relax, I want her to enjoy it!
4) Not gender specific--When Katelyn outgrows this sucker, I want to be able to use it again when we have another bambino (not planning on that anytime soon!)...and if that bambino is a boy, I don't want him to have to sit in a girly T.V. chair!
5) Color that matched our living room decor--I know you're thinking this is stupid, but whatever! The colors to match are turquoise and brown.
6) Versatile--It would be nice to be able to use the chair outside too!
And the winning chair is......the $10 planet chair from Big Lots! It was originally $15, but it was on sale!! I added some cute ribbon that I bought at Wal-Mart for $.80 to make the chair a little more fun and girly, and of course, the ribbon colors also match our living room decor!

Watch out Martha Stewart! You should see if Real Simple has any part-time, remote positions they need you to fill.
LOVE IT! You rock, Kristen . . . and your new little TV chair matches your blog decor too!
