This post is going up late, but my sweet hubby had to fix our computer. But now we are up and running. Yippee!
The last few weeks, I have been organizing, rearranging and purging. I am getting ready to do a Just Between Friends consignment sale in October. So, needless to say I have been very busy.
I love to collect vintage things. For example, I love vintage chairs, books (children books mostly), dishes, plates, coffee cups, pictures and well you get the idea. One day my wonderful in-laws came for a visit and brought with them a stack of vintage books. My husband told me they belong to his grandfather, who was a teacher. I love old things so we have a stack of vintage history books. For weeks I have been trying to figure out where in the world are we going to put these books. We have no bookshelves, so I had the books stack up in the corner of the office and a few months later I found this vintage chair and I put two and two together and this is what I came up with. What do you think?
I have more to do, but I just wanted to give you an idea what it looks like. |

I am bedazzled by vintage books too and you are one lucky girl to get hold of all those vintage treasures.
ReplyDeleteAs per the felt - I have not try to make my own yet, although I learned a lot (and browsed like crazy thru the net for instructions)and maybe, maybe one day I'll try and make some myself. If I do - I'll let you know!
Another thing - the link I put on the post leads to my profile on pinterest.
Love vintage things. Very nice!
