I mentioned in yesterday's blog that Linda found a great couch (couches, I guess, as its in two parts) and a coffee table at a thrift store, and got it all for $32. Today, I went with her to pick it up and deliver it to her mother's breezeway, where they will temporarily reside.
Sometimes you buy something and are so happy about it, but you go back to get it or look at it again and wonder why you were so excited; it's stained or cracked, or just not what you remember...not the case today.
The furniture is even nicer than we remembered and looks great in her mom's house - Lee has threatened to hold it hostage, it may not have a chance to get sold! The fabric on the couches is still a vibrant orange and the table has a label on the bottom showing it was handmade in 1960.
So, even with the accessories in this room - all yard sale or thrift store finds - the entire decor totals $40. I love it. Recycling at its best.
Plus, the dog in the background was free.
