My Valentine gift to ME! :) 02/06/15

Back in October I posted about these awesome Ghost chairs I saw at Marshall's/Home Goods. So cool, but I didn't have $129 EACH to spend, especially with Christmas coming up...

Went shopping last week with nothing particular in mind to buy...

And look what was clearanced!

I didn't even know they came in RED :)

These were the only 4 and they were 

stacked against the very back wall of the store. 

They had been marked down 3 times. 

Original price was $99 ea, now 75% off. 

Perfect for Valentine's Day and Christmas and...

  

EVERY DAY in my little kitchen!

 This style has no arms but that's ok.

 They take up less room around my kitchen table.
My sister said they look like they are made of Jello and
my daughter said they look like someone to a Ray-gun and
enlarged some Barbie chairs! Ha! I like that!

Hope ya'll have a Happy Valentines Day!!

love, rosie

the thrifting god smiles upon me 10/08/14

After purchasing an MCM desk and swivel chair , I half-promised that I was done spending $ on myself for the month. But for Pete's sake! It's only the 8th!

So I pulled in for a quick look at the thrift store and it took me all of 5 mins to find this swag lamp! I cleaned it up and it is just beautiful. It is white spun fiberglass. And the best part? It cost $2. That's within my budget! :)

Look at that sheen! I had to bleach it from it's 50 yr old dinge. (That nice starburst clock I got about 10 years ago for $3. But it took about 7 yrs to find a key to wind it!) 

On another note...Have you seen these retro"lucite" chairs at HomeGoods??

I want one of these for my new desk! But $129 is NOT within my budget! Maybe if I'm a really good girl, Santa will bring me one for Christmas.
