Today I wanted to show you what my dear sweet hubby gave me for Christmas this year. He kept telling me that he did not buy me anything for Christmas. He told me that over and over. But on Christmas morning, he said he had "found" something for me.
A few years ago my dear sweet hubby was in Alabama on a trip.
There is an old plantation near by where he stays. I think some of the guys were out there, just looking around.
And unbeknown to me, he found a little treasure.
Apparently it was in pieces.
And the back feet were missing.
But my dear sweet hubby brought it back home -
repaired it -
had someone recreate the back feet -
painted it -
and presented this to me on Christmas morning ----
It's a real beauty!Happy VTT!

What a pretty bench--and how thoughtful of your hubby to repair and repaint just for you!
Indeed it is a treasure. That one is really pretty. I have seen them around, but none like yours. He did very well.
What a wonderful husband!! Not only did he buy a piece that he knew you would love but he went to all the work to repair it. He's a keeper!!
