Drum Roll, Please

I shared in a previous blog the two chairs

we bought for a song.  With the second chair completely

refinished and reupholstered,

I was determined to find a home for them today

as I cleaned and rearranged the house.

I had it all planned out in my head,

but ya know, plans change. 

Here's the living room before the new chairs.

My windows are clean and bare

awaiting the arrival of new plantation shutters.

I can hardly wait!

This chair has a new home today -

it has moved upstairs to the bedroom.

A comfy, cozy place to sneak away

and read a book in a quiet corner of my room.

This chair moved from this corner to

this corner - to be closer to its mate.

Then the "NEW" chairs came in.

And, for now, I'm happy with them here.



I think the new chairs sitting here

"link" the living room to the

dining room -

I found these birds on canvas at a local shop.

See the crazy indents in the carpet

from where the other chair sat.

I'll get the iron and steam these out.

This is a note card and a frame I had on-hand
so I decided to put the two together.

I'm thinking I like this since I

have this "bird" theme going on (today).



And this little birdie.

I found this feathered-friend

 is a box of "stuff"  treasurers

I bought for $2

from an estate sale. 

It's an oil painting.

And, it's just too cute!!!

The easel was in the box, too.

A great find!

This cardinal figurine was a gift from my

husband many, many Christmases ago.

It's before we had the big chain stores.

I have always cherished these birds.

Thanks for stopping by, blogging friends.
