The other thing I found recently was this amazing table and chairs.
(This is the picture from the ad that I responded to.)
The folks had just moved and it didn't fit in their new house so it had to go.
She said there were multiple calls between the time I called and made arrangements to pick it up
and when I arrived.
The cool thing about the table is it has two leaves but no seam down the middle.
Our old table worked but was an old one my grandmother had
that we gorilla glued back together multiple times.
The chairs were recently recovered and I love the color, but they must have changed them when they did so.
I think there should be a plywood form as well.
As is when you sit in the chair, you feel like you’re falling into a big toilet seat.
There is no support so you actually sink into the chair.
I need to pull one apart and make a pattern of sorts.
From there, I can do them one at a time just to make sure one size fits all.
In addition to not having much time lately,
I haven’t been super excited to get to this,
because it involves pulling staples.
If you’ve never pulled staples on this sort of thing,
Come on over - I’ll learn ya how 😉
It will be nice to have them done, and I do have plywood for the job,
Now it’s just that time thing.

Those are gorgeous! I love your curtains, too.
ReplyDeleteThank you Stephanie. The curtains were actually a tablecloth that I cut in half 😊
DeleteYou certainly are a lucky one!
ReplyDeleteOOooo, what a handsome table and chairs. You are lucky to such a find.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter got that same table at a yard sale several years ago for 10.00 she stripped it and stained it gray top and painted it white on the bottom to fit her home I have to say it is a great table.
