I started out at The Love of Jesus Thrift, a fairly well known thrift store here in Richmond. You know how sometimes you walk into a store and you can hear the angels singing you are so happy to be there and they have such great stuff...well this actually happened for real today! Ha! I was greeted by a children's choir singing, which struck me as kind of odd but I got used to it! I'm pretty sure I was humming along by the time I left. Here is what I found.
Cue the angel music/children's choir! How AMAZING would this be in a craft room or mom den!!! I fell madly in love! I think its from an old mailroom. So much character. And the price was a crazy $50!!!! If only I had somewhere to put it I would have snatched it up in a second. Note to self: Make your kids share a room and get yourself a mom den.
I also found this that I came really close to bringing home myself.
I think this would be really easy to reupholster. Here is some inspiration. I love the idea of painting the wood a color.
And doesn't the pink one remind you of a certain color of the year...
