~ Thrift Chairs ~
















I purchased these 2 chairs at Thrift Town a couple weeks ago and have gotten tired of looking at them cluttering up my dining room. Of course you know me, brown simply will not do. Painted them with 2 coats of paint and did a little scraping. Stain is next-I have lined up several things to stain so that is tomorrows project (how many times have I said that). I need the light of day to stain properly. Then I plan on redoing my booth this week, so out goes the bed and in comes the thrift chairs and a round table. I love my iron bed, but beds do not appear to be selling (for me anyway). I also bought this awesome piece of ? from Felicia. Is it a chair back or something else? Who cares, what she did with it was fantastic. Old cabinet photo glued to the back and a wire hanger. Never ceases to amaze me the wondrous things people come up with. I love it !!!!!
