Oh my goodness! We were walking Emmitt the other day and my neighbor had these amazing chairs next to their garbage cans ready to throw away. I stopped and said to Fred, "I have to have these."
They were a bit dirty and sad looking and Fred looked at me like really? I said I could clean them up and put them in my sewing room.
I have been looking for a chair for my sewing machine desk and my computer desk forever!
I said, "oh and there are 3 which is perfect so I can give one to Melanie for her sewing machine desk."
The chairs are everything I wanted...
- yellow and white (my favorite retro combination. It reminds me of my Grandma.)
- round ( my favorite shape is a circle)
- They are small and do not take up much space.
- They swivel on their bases!
I just love them!!!
We called our neighbors and they said we could have them for FREE!
Aren't they perfect?!
Life is fun! You just never know what you are going to find!
Life is Art... Art is Life!
