... can hardly believe our good luck lately
new to us for free
the previous custodians were simply pleased to have
this gorgeous wardrobe taken away
i had been hunting for a 'just right' larger
wardrobe for Oscar on eBay
had in mind to find a dark wood piece
that was just crying out for a little paint
& mod podge transformation in the form of
branches & leaves
hmmm needless to say that i will not be
giving this new beauty the same treatment
& we have more beauties below...
with my kiddy art studio on my mind a-plenty lately
groups of 4 pre-kinder & kinders is the plan
so you can see why this set of very cool
retro chairs were irresistible!
i love them and they are larger than they appear
strong & sturdy as the day they were made
and the stories... oooh i'd love to hear a story or 2 from them!
just in need a wire brush run over them
& maybe a little light sand
& a good oil ... perfect
below is the hall style table that i spotted
early last monday morning
early last monday morning
on a nature strip ...
heading back home after dropping
my big boy at the station
my big boy at the station
was sort of still in my pj's!
& in the wrong vehicle
& in the wrong vehicle
stopped, checked it out, laid said table on side
hoping no one else might spot it too!?
high tailed back home
swapped vehicles in a massive hurry
bribed the 3year old to 'move-along-quick-sticks'!! ...
whew ... & it was mine

What great finds! I love those chairs, they look like old school chairs possibly? X
Oh those chairs are gorgeous. I can't believe anyone puts Lego on the nature strip!
I just saw your pics over at The Haby Goddess - you're finds are fantastic! I love those chairs - I'm on the look out for some myself!
I think you can be mighty pleased with these finds! I agree with the others, those little chairs are fantastic.
Thank you so much for sharing your finds on Make Grow Thrift this week x
The wardrobe is stunning, and in such fantastic condition. And how adorable are those little chairs - too cute!
