a couple weeks ago, hubby and I decided to go for an afternoon walk. Well as we were walking the snow was blowing in our faces and the wind was whipping and I was grumbling..."who's dumb Idea was this anyway" :)) and hubby asked if I wanted to turn around.I said no..we are halfway through now..we might as well finish. Well it was meant to be because as we rounded the corner of our road we saw our neighbor loading up a dumpster and from the corner I could see four legs sticking up....I looked at my husband and because he knows me so well, he said..."i will go ask if I can grab it" ..:) The neighbor had no problem letting him have it...and we triumphantly carried her home...and then I had to work out a plan of what I was going to do with her. First things first of all the brackets that were under the top of the table we all wonky so I had to totally undo and rescrew them in right and then she waited. I had an old chair that I found waiting for over a year and finally a week ago I found another chair...so I could begin with the makeover. A little sanding and paint and a gorgeous graphic from Karen - The Graphics Fairy and a little love and something again that was headed for the Dump is not pretty and functional...and honestly, this is another piece I am going to have a hard time letting go.
