Thriftiness....

I love thrift store shopping entirely too much! Pinterest has fed the fire by giving me a place to 'hang' ideas and for following others who share my eclectic passions! These chairs are some of my favorite finds and all on the same day! All were less than $10...and one was FREE! Can't beat that with a stick now can ya? Nuh uh, no ma'am, can't be done. Ms. Patsy (my upholsterer friend) has the flame fabric wingback & the channel-back right now. The channel-back will be covered in a terrific toile that was a super thrifty find: 34 feet for $3...yellow with the blue pastoral scene. The wingback will be in something in the green family that will match my existing $10 auction wingback that is a nice green. I wish I had thought to take a snapshot of the fabric I picked out. My little "Chanel" chair, well, that will be on hold for a while. Then the green old wingback with the nailhead trim will not be recovered.

I apologize for the poor quality images but they were all I had available.
