IKEA used to sell this banana-shaped chair called 'Mane'( it should have an umlate over the 'a' but I don't know how to make my iphone do that.) I bought ours the year we moved into our house in 2002. Thomas Tsukada loved watching TV while rocking on it. Once we had kids it became a fun toy. It's made out of hard, compressed styrofoam. Recently this foam has started crumbling after 10+ years of frequent use. I love this chair. I took off the blue giraffe print cover and washed it. I then spent an hour rebuilding it with cardboard and more than 1 roll(!) of duct tape. When I finished I felt the life and rehabing of our beloved Mane needed to be documented... Hence, this post
