Do You See What I See


What a lucky find! On my way home from the farmers markets this Saturday I came across this lovely chair abandoned on the side of the road. It's crying out for some TLC and the rattan seat is beyond repair. I plan to add a new upholstered seat pad, I'm not sure if I want to refinish the frame as I quite like the chipped layers of white and aqua paint built up on the timber.

Anyone around Five Ways on Saturday must of had a good laugh seeing some crazy woman running around the lanes of Paddington with a baby munching away on bunches of flowers in one hand and a broken chair balanced in the other!

  1. It gorgeous just as it is love the chippy paint look!
    We used to walk to the Royal at the five ways for dinner with the kids, it was about a twenty min. walk so to pass the time we would play charades... by the time we reached the pub there would be anything up to 15 of us playing..the oddest and nicest people joined in!
    So no I don't think anyone would have thought you were crazy in the slightest!!!!
    Have a very merry Christmas filled with love and laughter J

  2. I love the chair Bree. I would have carried it all the way home too. I'm glad to know to you like it's "laid back style" as well. Perfect for a beach cottage!
    Happy xmas.
