Stop by for a visit


If any one of you are familiar with Elisabeth Elliot, the widow of the martyred missionary Jim Elliot, I would encourage you to visit The Invisible Realities. This is the blog of a young lady who is helping to care for Elisabeth Elliot in her very golden years. I think you will be blessed.

VTT

I have not been able to contribute to Vintage Thingie Thursday much in these last few weeks. Busy days with packing and moving. But I thought I would post a picture of these antique chairs that were also left in the house by the previous owners.

I have seen numerous chairs like these at antique shops. They are in perfect condition and I love the little wheels on the front legs.

Please be sure to stop by Colorado Lady's blog and visit the other Vintage goodies today. Happy VTT!

Great minds..............

I love to read Hooked on Houses. Today as I was reading Julia's blog, I noticed a buffet she posted about from Russell & MacKenna.

So I said to myself, well I guess I must be in style, because this is a similar buffet I have in my own house.

I found this a couple of years ago at my favorite furniture store "Southern Hospitality" in Plant City. When I spied this little beauty, I stood by it and called my hubby from the store.

"Hey, are you anywhere near Plant City today?"

"Yes I am driving back from one of the plants."

"Could you stop by Southern Hospitality on your way back and take a look at this piece of furniture because I am not leaving it if we want to take it home."

YES! We took it home. And instead of paying $3700 for the buffet, the price - $349.00

Woo-hoo, it pays to shop around :-)

Words to Live By


A gentle answer turns away wrath,
But a harsh word stirs up anger.
