Yep, I bought myself a chair.
The best part, she {yes, this beautiful chair is a lovely lady} was only $3.99.
Even though she needs some TLC can't you see how sexy she is? I mean look at those legs and that tufting.
When I showed my husband this beauty, he responded, 'Oh, you bought a chair.'
Um, what I am sure he meant to say was, 'Amy, I can't believe you found that stunning chair for just $4. She's lovely, just like you'.
At least someone appreciates this chair as much as I do...
I LOVE it! My husband had a similar response to the chairs I found at a yard sale. I can't WAIT to see what you do with it! And it will look just LOVELY placed back in your 100 year old house I'm sure :)
ReplyDeleteHi Amy,
ReplyDeleteI absolutely cannot wait to see what you do with this chair...I mean,4 bux, c'mon!!! I have no idea why your hubby was not thrilled. When he sees what happens when you add your stroke of genius, he will be kissing your face!!

'Amy, I can't believe you found that stunning chair for just $4. She's lovely, just like you'. That's exactly what I would have said. What a steal, so excited to see what you do.
ReplyDelete$4! That is crazy! It is so gorgeous!!! Can't wait to see what you do with it.
ReplyDeleteGreat chair!! Is the upholstery in good enough shape to leave? I hope for your sake it is...nightmare to have to do that.
ReplyDeleteScore! What a pretty chair! I'm still thinking about that metal table we saw last time... Kinda wish I had listened to you and bought it.... Have fun with this one!
ReplyDeleteYour husband is really lucky that you are able to translate his language so well! I'm sure he will live a long and happy (and well accessorized homelife) because of it! :) what are you going to do with it????
ReplyDeleteLOL! Love that shot of your daughter ... like you forced her to pose with the amazing $4 chair and all she wants to do it play with water ...
ReplyDelete:)
That is fantastic deal on a great chair. Can your Goodwill talk to mine...that would have been at least 30 bucks at mine. :)
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a beautiful chair!! I can't believe it was only $3.99!!! I can't wait to see what you do with it:)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that chair was only $4!
ReplyDeleteLol! I love it: the caning, the silhouette, it's gorgeous! And did you see that blog I posted on my FB page today? The one written by the husband of a craft blogger? Maybe those guys can start a support group or something ;)
ReplyDeleteThat's incredible. Can't wait to see what you do with it!!
ReplyDeletehahaha...boys. They just don't understand the value of curvy legs. (Oh wait.)
ReplyDeleteYou basically stole that thing. Are you going to reupholster it yourself?
:) Great find! And at least he didn't say 'what did you buy that for?'!! Will you keep the upholstery or does it need redone?
ReplyDeleteOH MY GOSH! OOOHHHH MY GOSSSHHH! What a deal!!! Love!
ReplyDelete$3.99 is a steal! I love it and can't wait to see what you do with it!
ReplyDeleteI love it! My husband would have said the same thing! Haha!
ReplyDeleteaww her boots are so cute!

ReplyDeleteAh. I see. You share my chair affliction. (Beautiful!)
ReplyDeleteGuys just don't get it, they just don't. They are not wired that way (ok most). That is why you have us! So we can squeal and say wow what a bargain, and it's gonna look even more FABulous when you are done it with!! I wish I had a spare corner in my apartment that I could just get a fab chair like that, or piece of furniture to refinish. But alas I don't, so I will just oooh and ahhh at others' repurposing and go reorganize my closet so that maybe just maybe I can fit more stuff in there lol. Where are you planning on putting it?
ReplyDeleteYou crack me up! And I just cannot believe that your goodwill has such low prices. Every day this week I've thought, I should just run to goodwill and see if they have anything, but I have held myself back. Good thing it's so hot out that I don't feel like venturing out any more than I have to. After the longest yardsale it's been hard waiting a full week til the next garage sales! I'm desperately trying not to succumb to midweek shopping. If I could get a great deal like that, I really don't see what the harm would be, but I have a feeling such a bargain would not be what I would walk away with. Good work. What are your plans for it?
ReplyDeleteLiz
Wow seriously good deal! I wanna shop at your goodwill!
ReplyDeletetotal score! Love the size too!
ReplyDeleteoh ggguuurrrlll i wanna shop at ur Goodwill! we never have anything near that nice or inexpensive! and i'm the same with my gw - it's the peanut to my butter, i vow to stay away but she is like a siren to me. besides how would we find all those fabulous deals within checking it on a weekly (ok maybe biweekly for me i spend alot of lunch hours there)basis. i luv it! and of course your hubby meant that - i speak hubby too. i saw an exact chair like that at one of our resale shops and they for $39.99 EACH. virutal high five my friend!~
