:: This morning ::
Well, I have a funny story to share with you. Remember the chair that I was just so giddy about? Remember how the chair giddiness only fueled my "I must find the perfect vintage-modern couch?" Well, let's fast forward to a week and a half after I got the chair. I was at a party with some friends. Two of my favorite crafty gals started going on and on about all the great finds they got at Sals (Salvation Army) that very morning. And one of them says, "Yea Erin...remember that chair you got recently? Well, we found a couch that kinda looks like it." My jaw dropped a bit. Turns out, the couch was the mama of my chair. They are from the same set. The couch wasn't on the floor at Sals yet, but tucked in back in storage. And the lady at the check-out didn't even mention it! Luckily, my friends rock. Mandi bought it, then ended up trading me so my chair could have its match. How sweet is that??! Okay, my friends are really awesome.
::This afternoon ::
So now? Our living room looks a bit more matchy and super sleek. And all that mustard yellow? Pretty sweet, if I do say so myself. Thanks Mandi! I owe you BIG time!
Okay, enough about couches...onto the links ::
