It’s been a while since I shared my junkin’ finds, so here we go.
This fabulous, grand and vintage chair was $10 at GW. I had my eye on it for a couple of weeks and was certain that someone would scoop it up before me. I’m not sure why I hesitated, but with some shifting of furniture in my living room, it fits in perfectly.
It’s quite unusual and I’ve never seen a chair like it. There is an attached long basket on the side, and I can’t imagine what is is for? My son thinks it’s for a rifle :)
It’s not in great condition, but it’s sturdy and looks great in my room. The cushions were the perfect size to serve as bottom and back cushions, so that saved me some money.
The vintage wire basket is from a Canadian egg farm that has been in the area since the late 1800’s. For $3.00 it was a good find
This tray was purchased a couple of years ago and this is one of it’s many incarnations.
I made a few velvet pumpkins from my fabric stash, but couldn’t be bothered to search out real stems, so I put some butterfly knobs in and I think they look sweet. Not very pumpkiny, but that’s ok.
I also found this little side table for $12.
It’s made by Baker Furniture and while not in perfect condition, it is in great structural shape and it’s just pretty.
I am gearing up to repaint my living room. Choosing the colours is always the hardest thing. From floor to ceiling measures 16’ and I’m looking for a way to visually bring the height of the ceiling down. It’s either going to be fabulous or awful, but I’ll never know until I get to it.
Wishing you a lovely weekend.
