The back room of our house is our "mud room" ~ just a little room where we come in from outside....it's main purpose is for packing ebay stuff because my ebay closet where I store what I sell is just off of this room. We've had an old plaid couch back there just to have something to sit on but during a walk through our favorite flea market there sat a little "red jewel"!
This little antique love seat is very old, with springs & straw inside, wooden turned legs, & best of all it's RED!....my favorite color! And even better than RED it was only $20 & happened to just fit in the back of our Santa Fe so that I could bring it home. I really fell in love with this little antique ~~ it's not perfect so it fits in perfectly ~ but still in good shape for it's age & I adore it!
Some of my favorite things in this room are the picket fence garden picture & the red geraniums picture, both painted by my very talented mom ~ she also made the stained glass hanging in the window ~~ the little girl mask with grapes is Fitz & Floyd - one of my favorite garage sale finds that I've researched & have never found anything like it....I bought it to sell but couldn't part with it - she's so unique & too cute!
I've filled the wicker basket with some of my favorite Fall back issues of Home Companion & Romantic Homes - a nice reading spot. I love sun rooms & since I don't really have one I like to think of this as my mud~sun~room~parlor! It's bright & sunny & a quiet cozy corner in kattz*cottage! ~~

Oh I just love the red settee! I'm such a fan of red anyway so it immediately caught my eye. What a great find!
Thanks for the visit.wished I could bring my blue mugs over and sit on your new love seat!
Oh I love your red jewel. What a treasure you found! You have some beautiful things in your mudroom and I have to add that I have never seen a mud room decorated to lovely before.

That room is way to pretty for MUD! ha hah.. You have a cute blog!
I can't believe you found that cute settee for $20.!! Such a deal and such a cute addition to your already cute mud room.
I am enjoying your blogspot for the first time. I found we have a few things in common Red and the little church terrarium in your "mud" room. I wish I had a sunroom too! I have tried to turn my extra bedroom into a "garden guest room" using of course the color red to make it pop! I will stop in again soon to see what you are up to. You are a fun place to spend time.Jan at Daylilylane
