~Hand Me Downs~



I have a sweet friend.
Her name is Marjie!
She is putting her house on the market.
She called me
Wednesday night around 8:30 pm.
I was tired and asked Bill to please take a message. OK..OK..so I was actually almost asleep~
The message was "I have a desk and wanted to know if Amy wants it."
So Bill relayed the message to me.
That next night we were having a girls night out. I was on the way home for her to change and she asked if I wanted her to pick me up so I could see the desk.
This is what I saw.
Tell me...would you want it???



HECK YA!!!!!!!!

I haven't decided if I'm going to paint it white. I think I actually love it just the way it is.

I'm so happy my sweet friend thought of me.

Happy Monday to all!!!

~Drum Roll Please~

So, I have one of my favorite online stores, Lola B's Boutique, I just love to shop at. The owners name is Kasey. There is a little story about this place. I'm not sure how but I found her blog/store. I looked at her items and thought to myself "wow, she's got great stuff". Then, when I did just a wee-bit more investigating I realized she is located only about 20 minutes from my house. Back-flip time. I was so happy that that very weekend(ok...I found her online on a Thursday...so I obsess...can't help it) I made Bill do a little detour to go to her shop. My, was it a cute store.

Then the bad news struck and she posted that her store will be closed temporarily until she relocated. Not to worry though, she will still have her online store. YEAH!!

Well, I got this on her online store.
Fortunately, I now call Kasey my friend so she actually delivered these pieces(and a couple more)to my house. Then off the McDonald's playland we went. I couldn't wait to get home to get this in the perfect place~
The desk and the lamp. AMAZING. The lamp I bought last minute from her. I e-mailed her that morning and asked her to bring it. Of course she did. That's the kind of girl she is.

This is the top of the desk. Old pages from a poetry book. Sooo very sweet!

I just happened to have this chair. It works PERFECT. See, I think I was actually suppose to have this desk and chair. Now the chair finally feels like it has it's mate.

This is what it looks like up a running. It really is being used as a desk. Not one of the pieces that looks good but doesn't function good.

Thank you Kasey! You are not only AWESOME to do business...I'm glad you are my friend!!
