Hello 2013!
I decided to treat myself for the new year and keep a recent estate sale vintage find.
Sshh ~ don't tell Jim, he probably won't even notice...
The estate sale was a few doors down from my house...
I was one of the first people there and started buying things left and right...
The prices were amazing and I purchased quite a few large pieces...
The dining room was the last room I went in and when I saw this beautiful old chandelier I wanted it...
The price tag...$20!!!
Can you blame me for keeping it?
It is in wonderful condition and has all the fabulous crystal prisms.
I love the way it looks in my studio...
At some point I am going to have to tell Jim though.
I need his help wiring it up...
I will probably wait until I clear out the downstairs and bring the other pieces from the estate sale into the shop like this wonderful shabby old chair...
I love the fabric, it reminds me of our den growing up...
I also bought the matching 8 foot couch!
Although I did buy a cute pair of matching lamps that I brought right in the shop after the sale and sold them to Mary Ellen.
She used them in her living room makeover that she shared a few photos of on her blog.
I was lucky enough to see it in person and took some photos to share with you soon.
Oh...and I did keep another piece from the estate sale too for my Paris Hotel Suite. I switched it out with another piece to make room for it and already sold the old one at the shop!
I will share the new look soon too.
For now, I am happy with my new chandelier...
Hello gorgeous!
I want to thank you all so much for your thoughts and prayers for our friends who lost their home in a fire on Christmas Eve, I knew I could count on you!
Thank you for stopping by!
