A Tale of 2 Chairs Continued

Okay, I found my camera and thought I would continue where I left off...

                                   Now I have waxed with clear Anne Sloane and then distressed

                                                                looking good girls

                                                                 I am loving the flowers

                                                      don't they look great against the stone

                                           Now for the uphostering; I am going with feed sacks

                                                We lived in Buffalo N.Y. after we were married

                                           These will look great against my white/gray walls

                                                          They look like angel wings to me

                                                          So I can't wait until these are done, I am

                                                  getting help from my friends at The Pink House
A place where I go to get inspiration and Anne Sloan paint!!  Thank you Sherri, Pam and Shelby!

Tale of Two Chairs

Here's the Story of a lovely chair, she was going to be sold and so was her sister...

My sister-in-law was moving and we were selling her chairs at a store but no one wanted them, she said just give them away...well they just didn't want to leave me, so I took them home

Great hubby said, just what we need, more chairs.  we only have 40.

Now, to be fair to me he counted every chair, inside, outside, dining room and probably the folding chairs!

 But, I do have a thing for chairs.
                                                            Enter...Paris Grey by Anne Sloan

                                                                The detail craving is beautiful

                                                           
                                                           So first Olde White

Then Paris Grey

So lovely, excuse the boxes since we are moving next week

My Next step will be to wax and then distress!

Until then and I find my camera, Safe travels,

Do Go Chasing Waterfalls...

Don't go chasing waterfalls baby is a song by Macy Gray and that's what I kept singing as we drove to Brevard, NC.  There are so many beautiful falls there but we picked Triple falls (that is were they filmed The Hunger Games).

We had to stop for breakfast and what a fun sign to start the day.  And do you see that beautiful molding.

                                             This is the path we walked to Triple Falls

                                                 It looks so calm at this end of the path

                         We paused quite a few time to admire the rocks

                                    The water started to foam and pool

                                                 Then we got a long range view

                                    We made it to the middle and played

                                                           Just Beautiful

                           We just had to touch the water and boy was it cold

                           Next we took off our shoes, it felt cold but good

                                                   

                                                           Too much fun

                                                                            All smiles

                                                             

                                                          Peaceful and beautiful

                                    Back in town was a quaint movie theater

                              This was a great clothes store "Theophilus"

It was time to go home

Paddy was tired 

                                             Until next adventure....
