Oh my~~~~It took sooooo long to get this post going. Still having problems. I will try to respond to all the comments from the previous two posts by tomorrow.I'm sorry about my last post being so negative...I was just so frustrated...still am.
Anyway....I found a couple of wicker pieces on Friday at a yard sale. The settee was only $30.00.
Two other ladies were there, and tried taking it..even after I paid for it!!!
Who knew yard sales were so brutal????
I covered the cushion with linen, and added one of my vintage linen envelope pillows I made, and another vintage sham from a different yard sale.
The chair came with the desk below. I like the chair, but it sits very low...even with a cushion. I am using one of the wicker chairs I found while "vintage" shopping with Laurie from Heaven's Walk. So I just added two pillows I made from more of my vintage linen, and put this one in the living room.
I LOVE this desk! It is in perfect shape. The drawers are great for holding all of my "stuff". The desk I was using had only one small drawer in the front. I am now using that behind the sofa. It is filled with pics of the grandkiddos.
Oh no!! I just noticed the wicker lamp shade is slanted...don't look at it.So...this is my little corner where I blog. OR...try to blog.
I am so happy with all the white wicker. The price on the desk with the chair was only $35.00.
I thought that was a great price.
Now I must go back and respond to the comments on my previous posts.
Thank you for being patient while I try to work some kinks out with my blog.
Hope your weekend was nice. Mine was wonderful...we had company...quite a bit, as a matter of fact. LOVED it!!!!
Toodles.
Debbie
Fabulous pieces! That desk... OH MY!!
ReplyDeleteAnd they look so great in your space.
+ a great deal!!
& I am really not sure that I would not have fought you for it :)
Rummage sale ladies can be aggressive! I'm so happy for you that you found something that you love!
ReplyDeleteThe desk is so cute.
Don't worry about the other post- computers and grumbling go hand in hand.
I did not look at the lampshade...
Hugs- Tete
The settee is gorgeous and I love your white fluffiness you've added to it.
ReplyDeleteI've been also having trouble with my cable. I know the feeling. I had to laugh when you said about the lamp shade. I hadn't even noticed till you said "Dont look at it" So funny. I've done that sort of thing too, all of a sudden I see a painting on my wall that is crooked, and I am trying to crop it out. Loving your blog!
I hope you are not having anymore problems with blogger. The lakehouse is looking beautiful in all its' whiteness. I love the door you painted and the table all set up. I too love wicker and you certainly got a bargain. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteThat settee is so cute I may have to come and steal it away...I can see why it caused such a fuss.
ReplyDeleteHope that the Windows Live Writer program will solve all your problems.
Have a Happy Monday!
Hey Sanibel Sista! :) I hope that Blogger is treating you better today. I am going to check out mine to make sure that I've uploaded the new editor...just to make sure! And that Live Writer sounds fun, too....That sounds like a great rainy day task to check out.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your wicker, girl! What a steal! I can just imagine you sitting there blogging away to us all while you gaze out your window at the sparkling water......Sigh! :)
Ok...now....no more treasure hunting without me til you visit Heaven's Walk again at the end of the month.....deal? lol!

I love all of your wicker pieces. I have always loved wicker. It looks so pretty in your home.
ReplyDeleteGreat finds! I am always on the look out for white wicker for my porch!
ReplyDeleteThe wicker pieces you found are really great. I love wicker, especially white. Your little corner is so cozy! I didn't know garage sales could be brutal-that hasn't happened to me--yet!Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteThat's a very pretty wicker settee, Debbie. I like the filigree design. The chair and desk are pretty too, what a bargain!...Christine
ReplyDeleteGreat deal on the wicker Debbie! Imagine a garage sale fight...LOL! I've been having major computer problems too (not related to Blogger). In fact I was without internet for the last 4 days, after just getting my computer back last week! It's so frustrating. Hope everything is straightened out for you.
ReplyDeleteI love wicker too--it is so old fashioned feeling and homey. I sometimes use photobucket for my pictures and sometimes I load it straight from Picassa.
