I played Hookey from work today
and I blame EstateSales.net!
Not only did I play Hookey
but the degenerate side of me
made the call to the school
to get Miss Beaux out of class
to play along with me!
Now, don't get me wrong here,
I support education and believe that all children
should be in school etc., etc.
But everyone should get a mental health day
with their mom, right?
There was a HUGE model home sale
starting today that I didn't want to miss.
The builder is well known and very established
and I knew they would have some great finds.
AND, I promised her a Starbucks on the way there!
This is only a portion of the huge warehouse!
Most of the furniture was dated
but in great shape as no one had really ever sat on it.
Pillows anyone?
I sent this pic to Mr. Beaux
and he thought we were in the garden section at Lowe's!
Tons of accessories!
Miss Beaux wanted to bring the Sputnik clock home
but it was broken!
When I was perusing EstateSales.net
I spied this white chair.
I figured it might be too expensive
for my Estate Sale budget
but I knew I needed to check it out.
I liked the lines of it
and I thought the size was perfect for a bedroom.
When I saw the price I flipped out!
Can you believe only $54.00?
It is in pristine condition
without a mark on the fabric!
I love the soft tufting and the covered buttons.
The legs need a little Restor-A-Finish
on them I think
but that's an easy fix.
When I was hauling it out
to the car a lady that was entering the sale said " Well there goes my chair!"
That's when you know you have a great find!
I can't wait to put it in it's new home!
Speaking of... Here is a little sneak peak of the Hardwoods in the Master.
Not a very good photo
but this is after the first coat of sealer
went over the stain yesterday.
Today was two more coats
with buffing in between.
I am so glad we are doing this!
So, the rest of the day was spent with Miss Beaux
at more Estate Sales
and Lunch at the Corner Bakery.
We had a blast and laughed a lot
at the funny things that we saw.
We found these two hilarious cats
at the big sale
but sadly left them behind, Ha ha.
She did talk me into buying her a 50 cent cat mug though.
We brought other goodies home too
which I will share with you later.
Until Next Time,
