My free side-of-the-road chair, which has faithfully posed for many an etsy photo with a pillow or stack of vintage tablecloths on it, is getting ready to start over, this time in a lovely shade of aqua.
A change in the seat cover fabric to follow as well. Something with red, I think, although I'm open to suggestions.
Brass frames have been quietly multiplying in a corner of the doily factory so they’ve been separated, decorated and will be shipping out to my antique mall space this week.
In just about a week I’ll be unloading a much-larger-than-usual truck as vendor at the Plucky Maidens Junk Fest in Portland because in a moment of sheer insanity, I rented two vendor spaces.
If that doesn’t make some room in the Garage Where Cars Can’t Park, nothing will.
Your script is enviable. I wish I were closer to help clean out that garage. I am more than sure there are wonderful treasures to be had...best of luck...smiles...Renee
ReplyDeletelove your clipboards! so clever and love your designs. All is great, your aqua chair and the brass, so pretty. You'll soon need more than 2 vendor spaces! and a bigger garage :)
ReplyDeleteIf I lived anywhere near Portland I would buy it all. I live in CA. all your things are so cute.
ReplyDeleteMost definitely red in the seat cover. Red and Aqua are a holy and divine union......
ReplyDeleteGreat clipboards! Can't wait to see your goodies at plucky..getting closer.
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful treasures!! Thank you so much for coming and visiting!! I peeked at all your beautiful tablecloths, and you have such a fabulous collection!! I am happy to be your newest follower!! Thanks for letting me know about Pinterest. I have set-up an account, and will hopefully get started!! Thanks!! ;) xo Heather
ReplyDeleteI'm loving those chalkboards and the way you prettied them all up. Brass frames never looked so good and that chair will be looking mighty fine. I think you might be needing more than two pretty soon.
ReplyDeleteTotally making some clipboards like that...love
ReplyDeleteLove the chair makeover and the wallpaper in the vintage frames and the chalkboard paint on the clipboards are an inspiration. Bravo to you!!
ReplyDeleteYou have been busy. Love the wallpaper inside the vintage frames. A whole collection of these grouped on the wall would be beautiful. Good luck getting closer to park in the garage. LOL. Do dealers ever get to park in their garages? I never have.

Are the frames filled with fabric or wallpaper? They are beautiful and look like a gallery wall ready to go!
