Two days after Merry Thanksgiving
Good evening to you all who are still up on the eve before Sabbath. As most of you have been shopping for two days now, I decided to shop at the local Salvation Army. I have a love for collecting unique items and at the most inexpensive prices. I also have a love for decorating and just can't seem to deal with store prices. So off to the Army I go. To you who love to decorate, my favorite styles are chabby chique, and folk art. These two styles are a bit odd together, but I decided that the Lord has given me these tastes; I might as well enjoy them and have rooms in the house that are a bit different. Months ago, I went to a furniture store in Kittery, Maine. There was a huge white hutch that I loved, (you know, that beach kind of chipped paint look). The price was not bad but still much too much for my family to pay for a piece of furniture. So, what do you think I began to do? Hutch hunting. I found a top of a hutch that was already painted white so I am 1/2 set now and will continue to look for a bottom half that I like. In the meantime, I am on a freecycle site and someone offered a tv entertainment center. They told me it was small. Ugh oh, small! It would not fit into our van. Well, we had to rent a small uhaul to pick it up today. My loving husband had patience with me!
