Wow! So many great finds! I especially love the chair and the vent. I never would have thought I would love a vent, lol. The chair looks great in blue. How about re-upostering with a flower or other pattern in the same blue? Can't wait to see what you do with it --- such and amazing chair!
ReplyDeleteThank you Gigi-I think I am going to re-do the chair/seat in a velvet. The dressers are now done!
DeleteWow, what great finds. Love that chair and the French dresser. I would love to replace my store bought dresser with a piece like that. Maybe I will find one some day. How about using grain sacks for the chair.
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim-grainsacks would be a great idea for the chair! I hope you find a dresser soon!
Deletehere's my 2 cents on your chair. I think it would look cute with something out of the norm on it. Like a larger floral pattern. Maybe becuz all my furniture is plain vanilla and I have the winter cabin fever, but think a kicky pattern would spark it up.
ReplyDeleteThank you Sugar-I like how you think -I like a little interest too. As I was taking it apart the other day I saw that it was stamped and it is made by an old company and is an antique so I might want to keep it looking like it would have. It originally had canning on the seat and back, but I am not sure I want to teach myself how to do that yet.
DeleteGreat finds...LOVE the furniture pieces!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Martina-you know me and furniture! I just finished the dressers!
DeleteI think my favorites are the seat, and the vent. You found some awesome stuff.
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan-I really do love the French seat too!
DeleteOkay Darrielle, I'm packing up and moving near you. You find the most amazing stuff. Love the chair too! And that curved shutter if very unique. Can't wait to see what you do with all your goodies! :) Julie
ReplyDeleteThank you Julie-I think I just like to hunt for treasures or soon to be treasures!
DeleteWonderful treasures, Darrielle!! I know that little French chair is going to be fabulous when you're done with it. You have a great vision for what a castoff can become.

Thank you Mary Alice-I do like a good castoff! I have painted the dressers and the vent-just need to post about them!
DeleteOh Darrielle you found some wonderful treasures. Love that french chair. Oh La La! I cannot wait to see what you do with that. You go girl.
ReplyDeleteKris
Thank you Kris-oh la la is right! I think I am going with velvet or grain sack
DeleteWhat a great find. I'm sure it will be pretty no matter what. I like pale velvet blue and pale velvet lilac. Ticking is pretty too, but I also love that gorgeous floral you did! hugs
ReplyDeleteThank you Su-I like velvet too!
DeleteEvery week you find the BEST stuff! You have to tell us where you shop! I'm thinking road trip!
ReplyDeleteThank you Pat-I like to go to the local Flea Market and the thrift stores!
DeleteWhat great finds! Can't wait to see what you do with them. Jo
ReplyDeleteThank you Jo-I have finished the dressers and the vent and will be posting soon!
DeleteBeautiful treasures, WOW! Your treasures always have me drooling. Love them all, especially that attic vent. Thanks so much for sharing at Vintage Inspiration Party.
ReplyDeleteThank you Betsy-You should come down some time and we can go junking together!
DeleteWow - these are some amazing and fantastic treasures!!! Totally in love with the sweet bench and attic vent, but I can see that gorgeous headboard as a fireplace screen.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lala-the bench is going to be great when I finish I think. I already painted the vent and need to post about it!
DeleteI don't think my comment made it through cyber world so here goes again
ReplyDeleteLove the Chair !!!!!!!!!!!
what a good haul you made girl !!!!!!!!
Thank you-it was a good haul and the chair/seat is a stunner or will be soon!
ReplyDeleteGasping for air. What a wonderful collection. Oh, but that chair, that chair.
ReplyDeleteThank you Donna-I agree the chair is divine!
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteVisiting here from Miss Mustard Seed's link-up and I just LOVE the French chair -- can't wait to see it reupholstered -- you found the deal of the decade!
Thank you Valerie-I agree it was a good deal-cant believe someone didn't want it!
DeleteWow - you've got some serious treasures there! That French chair is definitely my favorite - so lovely and unique. I see it in a neutral Belgian linen but I'm a neutral loving girl so no surprise there! Thanks for sharing your finds on Best of the Nest!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kris-I love the chair too and will have to get on it soon!
DeleteOMGoodness! I LOVE that chair! I think that pale blue is perfection but also agree with the above - a neutral Belgian linen would be gorgeous. I also love your shabby bistro chairs and the vent!! You SCORED!! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you -I still haven't decided what to do for fabric but leaning towards velvet I think!
