Living Room Chairs




Hello friends.
 I hope you are having a good week.
The chippy green primitive chair in our living room has acquired 
a vintage suitcase and a basket of fall gourds.


I found the white chair at an estate sale.
 It is slip covered but pretty rough otherwise. 
Yes, I nailed a chair to the wall.


It has beautiful primitive curved legs.
 It's a child's chair and was hand carved. 
I think it's a piece of art.
If it was on the floor the legs would be unseen

 Dried forsythia is in the urn. 
I dried it quite by accident and liked how it looks.


Ghost Cat Alert!

Sometimes camera hiccoughs are fun.




joy and peace
Olive

  2. Olive, I like the chair hanging on the wall. I also like the child's riding helmet. I had a chance to buy one of those once and passed it up, darn. You ghost cat is funny. How's your sweet CC doing? I think of her when my granddaughter's name is brought up. Her nickname is CC. Blessings to all. xoxo,Susie

  6. Your flair is showing in these photos! Love the twigs. The chairs are both scrumptious. Hanging the little one is a nice touch. I always have the radar out for brown transferware too. As you know. Isn't the hunting life divine?

  16. I love the new chair! There was a guy in Michigan set up in a parking lot and he sold nothing but chairs! I bought three and hubs said NO more! I love the wee one on the wall, genius! When you say you dried the forsythia by accident, do you mean you never tossed it? I love it and would like to do that with mine next spring.

    XO,
    Jane

  23. Great color on the chair, and would you believe, I got a set of that Samsonite luggage when I graduated from high school? I'm feeling "vintage" now. :) Have a great weekend. We're celebrating our 45th anniversary today..so I'm really feeling "vintage".Have a great weekend.
