We needed a couple of bar stools for our Island in our Kitchen. But, as usual, we didn’t want to pay the going rate.
I found these perfect, backed, swivelly, Country Bar Stools at our local dump. I had to pay $10 for them; but it was still a deal! Then we started painting!
We painted them white and added some Red Garage Sale Cushions (each for 50 cents).
Next time, take a look around at your local dump and see what treasure awaits you!
My sister-in-law, Gitti, sent me some photos of a remodel of her guest room in her Country Cottage Home. She writes me,
There’s a new paint job (Kind of a latte color), and new base trim. I decided I wanted to make my guest room inviting, cozy and inspriational. So one wall is starting to be filled with words of inspiration. I’ve added a welcome tapestry/banner and some books and magazines to read. It’s not done yet, but so far, so good…
Words to Inspire us are always welcome and can make a difference! Thanks for sharing Gitti!

Thanks to my friend Liz, who called and gave me the heads-up about this free chair she saw 3 minutes from her house (and my house). It needs a few extra nails and some stain and it’s good to sit in my backyard and be oh so adorable!!! I’ll show you the finished chair in the weeks to come! Thanks Liz!
