the ones that got away...


So, get this, for about 2 years I passed a home on my daily dog-walk that had a set of these exact chairs (painted white) just sitting outside getting ruined by the cold weather and rain. I mentally wrote notes in my head that I would someday tape to their door offering $100 for the six un-loved chairs, and I'm sure I'd have done them a favor. When I finally got the nerve up, they'd moved!! The chairs were gone. These happy yellow bamboo chairs are so freakin' fabulous, this is the very thing I wanted to do with those chairs.

Oh Amber, what a horrible regret. I hate it when that kind of stuff happens, just when you work up the nerve...nothing. :)

My mom actually did that once and they gave them to her! I hope to one day have the courage she does to go up to people's homes and do the very same thing! Best of luck to you in your quest. I'm looking for the same ones!!!

I think yellow is such a fabulous colour - I am thinking of getting yellow chairs myself - just trying to figure out if I am brave enough!
