I stripped an old seat down today that goes in a wicker chair. I've run across many pieces over the years that have been covered over (without removing the old fabric). I started pulling the layers off. 1....2...3...4....5...6..........................11 layers!!!
The last guy who covered it actually had to use roofing nails in order to get through all the layers.
Here's some other personal records for items found in a single piece of furniture:
Most loose change: $28.32
Most batons: 5 (a drill team family)
Most remote controls: 6
Most fingernail clippers: 9
Most cell phones: 4
Most DVD's: 5
Most I-Pods: 2
1 old bee hive (huge)
1 bag of pot
1 old hamburger from Carols, Carols was Carols before it became Burger King, at least here.
1 used con#$%
millions of little brown worms
3 porn mag's.
1,500 dollars in small bills (customer came looking for that one)
many combs
some subway tokens
Was the customer with the bag of weed the same one as the envelope of small bills ? LOL
My old boss claims to have once found a tennis racket in a sofa. I guess if 5 batons fit; it could happen.
3 pneumatic dental drills.
Potato chips, a bunch of them, between the old fabric and the new fabric.
1 staple puller that I use almost every day.
Around 50 small rocks, the ones that are smooth.
Around 25 beer bottle caps from a chair that was used at a bible college by the son of a family that is very religious and in conversation the mom mentioned how happy she was that her son went to a college where there was no drinking. I never told her about the bottle caps.

LOL Boy Darren you gave me thoughts of changing carriers there for a moment :D Actually the two were years apart. But the potato chips between fabric layers reminded me of a banana peel I found between layers :o
