curbside find....

At the end of the season last year, I was walking past my neighbors house when I noticed this at their curb.
I was appalled they would get rid of it, but happy for me!

It was just too good to pass up.

She has some great curves and is really comfortable with a nice glide...

All she needs ( like the rest of us! ) is a little TLC....

  12. Isn't that the best feelng!? Call me crazy...but I get more of a rush from a curb-side furniture find than if I brought a new piece home from Ethan Allen! ;o)

    Speaking of that, I still have a couple pieces tucked in my warehouse with your name on them! We will have to get together one of these days so I can drop them off to you!

    Coming to Kane this weekend?
