Lucky girl

Two cool finds under $15!
Ok, it's not the boy, (though I'd pay at least $16 for him) but do you see the pretty chandelier in the background? I scored it at a yard sale right before we moved in for $15. (Yep, it's been hanging out in my closet for two years!) Sean surprised me and put it up last week. Pretty huh?
I got this cool chair at Savers for $12.00. I couldn't pass it up. So many ideas for redoing it are flying through my brain! I tried to take the bottom fabric off, but it's stuffed with some wierd things. A little over my head, so I may have to slip cover it or get it reupholstered by a professional. Should I paint it black or white or maybe just sand it and white wash? Hmmm.

Oh, I love a good garage sale find too. So fun. I'm sure you will find something to do with that chair that tops all of our creativity. Your holidays looked fun. So fun to see your kids. Oh...and yes, the difference between boys and girls...amazing.

I love when you find great deals like that. I love your chandelier! I wish we lived closer so you could come help me decorate my house. O and I think the chair would be really cute white but I guess it just depends on where you are going to put it.

paint it white rub it back and leave the fabric. Then I'll borrow it for shoots and accidentally never give it back!
