|
A few things we found at a huge indoor garage sale over the weekend. The chair with the yellow seat is in great shape. I just need to clean it and find a pretty piece of fabric to redo the seat. The other chair was only $1.00 and will probably end up with a plant on it out in the garden. The little footstool needs the rush replaced which my husband can do. I had a great time since it was the first garge sale we have been to since last fall.

My favourite is the little footstool. There is just no way I could have resisted buying it if I'd seen it.

Polly, nice chairs and the footstool is a cutie.
The white chair will look great with a plant in the garden.
I haven't been to garage sales in a long time, way to long infact.
