Today we went out ,I told Ron to drive towards the sun(west).well we found some and some new antique stores.We went to leavenworth,kansas,antique mall,and we struck gold.Found this wonderful old wicker sofa ,with cushions(very clean )newly done,but needing paint...70.00.They wanted 95.00 and we talked them down to 70.00.Have it in the house till the sun comes out sometime here this week to paint it. We also bought a neat old wash tub with attached stand and a wash boiler(not copper though)but really neat for 12.00 to use as a planter..will put them up(pics) maybe tomorrow.. Here's the sofa..
Eileen,Bear just loved it,the pic looks like "hey im trying to enjoy the fire here,what do you want"..lol. Bethie,been hunting stuff for years,getting out there alot helps. Netty,thanks alot. lol.Cajun, hunter..I am that!

Thanks Melissa,Bear is one of our 5 cats,he's the one who has the house,the other cats have the garage,lol.we have 3 black cats,Also 1 who's black and white,and a solid gray one,bear's the oldest he's 17.
Love the sofa,Its beautiful in front of the fireplace.I do love to shop for bargins and you found some wonderful deals.
Rons favorite place Glenda is right here in front of the fireplace,He enjoys cutting wood ,i like to split it when i can,walnuts fairly easy to do..If i didnt have so much in the family room right now ,i might keep it there,but back behind it,is a brown suede couch and my moose chair and coffee and end tables, and curio cabinet and desk,lol,,hmmm,i think that it!..lol/
Nice looking sofa Kat - what color are you going to paint it? Will you redo the cushions or leave as is?
Hi Polly, im going white,since all my other wicker is white, the cushions will stay like that for now,or until i see a material that will really look nice on it,but for what it has now will work,since it was recently redone.
