~~From the CURB to the COTTAGE!~~





I fell in love with these daisy chairs! They came from the curb - can you imagine anyone throwing THESE away?! Now I love them even more since I gave them a new life. I went through my fabrics & picked 4 to choose from.....it took me forever to decide ~ but I'm happy with the one I chose. I made a purse from this same fabric last year & love the bright colors. I've been using a stool when I sew so one will be my sewing chair.......the other one will go wherever I can find an empty spot in my crowded cottage! ~ maybe in the kitchen. I'm off to my mom & dad's in Denton today ~ this week is my family's yearly summer reunion - my sister, neice, and nephew fly in today ~ my oldest son Ryan is in Denton & my youngest son Eric drove up from Austin yesterday ~ & my brothers will be here for the weekend. Many happy times ahead to make new family memories!

Your chair is adorable. I've never seen one like that before. I'm glad it found a new home ;-)
