colour and pattern love


One of the bonuses of living in a small country town is they are a mecca for op-shop and garage sale bargains. We have recently tapped into the online swap buy and sell in our little town and came across this gorgeous dining setting. It is in immaculate condition and I just LOVE the pattern and colour. And when I say bargain, I mean BARGAIN. I would hate to think what price tag this would have had on it in one of the funky little retro shops in my old inner-city hood. One chair would have cost more than what we paid for the whole set.
Excuse me while we go and christen it with the bottle of wine!

    Reminds me of an event that happened many years ago. I had invited more people for dinner than I had chairs. We quickly went garage sale-ing and wound up with a Parker dining suite - extending table, four chairs and two carvers for $500 the lot. We've since had the chairs recovered and it's still going strong. Love your work, Dorothy Kraft
