A lucky day

Last week – I went into the LQS because I needed more ‘white’ fabric. Having not brought a swatch with me – I bought 2 different whites because I couldn’t remember if it was a moda or a kona – and I still don’t know because solids don’t have selvedges!

While I was there – a overheard this sentence ‘I will put it up on craigslist’….

My head immediately whips around and asks the owner -’huh? what? something on craigslist from the LQS?’

She had just replaced her cabinetry! Lucky Day! I asked to see the old stuff and it was out back under a tarp and I said ‘I’ll take it! How much would you like for it?’ She said, if you just take it away, it’s yours!

And so yesterday – I had it picked up and delivered by Earl from ‘Early delivery’ (cute, no?) and you may be thinking that it went in the studio – but nope!  I needed it for the family room! Yeah!!!

Somewhere to keep the kids crap! I mean, toys. No I don’t, I really meant crap.

Isn’t it perfect there? It needs a little lovin’ but wow – I am so pleased with it!!!

See the blue sofa off to the right? That was in that little alcove before the delivery.

Am I wrong to be proud that this is all I found underneath it?

  1. Ha-ha, with two little ones you should be very proud that’s all you found. Sometimes I find almost as much, and my youngest is 18! OK, maybe I’m exagerating a little, but I’m always surprised by what I find under a couch.

  2. That is awesome! What a find!

  3. Most excellent score!!
    Have a great day.
    Always, Queenie

  4. Wow! How great is that. I think is was meant to be. BTW – it is lovely to have you blogging again. I don’t know how you find the time.

  5. Great deal and yep you should be proud. You only had half a cracker and two m&m’s, with a few toys. If I moved mine, I would be able to fill a 5 gallon bucket full of the dogs toys, and another bucket with their hair! Oh it is bad. I wanted short hair dogs so I wouldn’t have this problem. I am getting carpet again, as soon as possible.

  6. Awesome! Right place at the right time. Good for you!

  7. Guess what, Anne Marie…I have a pug, short-haired dog, yes? He sheds more than my lab…

    Love the cabinetry! I want cabinetry…
