In constant pursuit of making our kitchen the heart of the home, I have had my eyes peeled for a couple of chairs that will soon be sitting around our 'new to us', donated by Henry's mom, pedestal table. I wasn't necessarily scouring the neighbors trash cans, but when an opportunity arises I first recruit Henry-and then pounce!
Lucky us, we pulled these beauties from a garbage pile up the street. The cost? FREE! Not exactly the look I was going for but due to the low price, I figure nothing a can of spray paint can't fix. Whoop whoop!
One person's trash is another person's treasure!
I pulled a big framed print out of the dumpster in our neighborhood a couple of years ago. It was kind of abstract, the colors were pretty, it was huge and already framed. I thought, why not? For a whole year it was on the wall in our house before I think I realized it was a picture of two people "getting busy." Whoops.
