Quick one today, as it is Committee Meeting tonight.
My dressing table. |
We'd only been there a matter of weeks & I spotted it in a secondhand furniture shop called "Boomerang Furniture". We were sat at a set of traffic lights & I couldn't take my eyes off it. I walked to the shop in my lunch hour one day & was told I could actually lay-bye it and pay over a few months. I was delighted as I'd seen one similar, but in different timber for double the price. I've had it since 1987 & still love it. This photo was taken in another house & the flowers are a lovely perfumed bunch of mock orange I'd picked.
And this is what I've been up to over the last couple of days.
These 2 little aprons will be off to DD's soon. They were promised either last year or the year before (oh dear late as ever), & hope they will be used as their other ones I made are now way too small.
Best go & look forward to seeing what the others are posting for the heartathon.
Take care all & have a good day.
Susan.
It is indeed a lovely heart mirror. Lucky you could buy it the way you did.
ReplyDeleteLovely find, lovely piece of furniture too :) I can 'smell' the mock orange, we used to have one and the scent is intoxicating :) x
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful dresser, I love the little cupboards each side of the main mirror. How lovely that it has been part of your life for 30 years.
ReplyDeleteI remember years ago when shops would 'lay something by' and you would pay for it a week at a time; now you can have it immediately and be in debt to a credit company . . .
What a lovely dresser. I think vintage furniture is beautiful. Jx
