A month ago I was making my way through a few garage sales and came across the mother load.
You know the one...
People just tired of being out in the heat, desperate to get rid of their stuff, willing to part with it for practically nothing.
Oh yah.
I spied these two beauties sitting all by themselves.
I ended up getting them 2 for $5 (total score!)
I immediately called my sissy Marie over at Emma Calls Me Mama and asked her if she'd like one.
(what do you think she said?) Hee Hee.
Practically matching chairs...we are soooo sisters.
I painted mine red, then a solid coat of turquoise on top with a light sanding to let the red show through.
I might sew a little cushion for the seat too...but that's another post.
I'm linking up with

and also...
And Vintage Suitcase Friday over at Thrifty Tickle!

Terrific find! And your chair looks fantastic in blue with peek-a-boo red! What colour did your sister paint hers? I wonder why these 2 identical chairs were sitting at a different height??

What a cute chair! And of course I love the color. Would fit right in around here!
Hello Lyssie – Oh my word. Those are the cutest little chairs I ever saw! I don’t find stuff like that at garage sales here. You definitely did score. Thank you for spying them for us! I think I’ll paint mine white (surprise!).
Hugs,
Marie
Adorable chair! I’d be honored if you would drop by and link up to Vintage Suitcase Friday!
Yum! I do love that shade, and I like the little peeks of red too. Very cute!
