I know what you mean about that feeling you get when you are in someone's house. Some definitely have positive happy vibes....I think mine does. It's filled with things that are all important to all or one of us in some small way. I can just imagine the feeling your house has...one of serenity for sure.<br />xo<br />annieannie@mostlovelythingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14964878814684727910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-83449261478262579962013-05-14T06:55:06.280-07:002013-05-14T06:55:06.280-07:00I LOVE that chair, what a great find.

I'm always trying to find second hand furniture (buying new can be expensive and the quality is often times lacking over my vintage treasures) where do you find out about estate sales? I love the chair you brought home and it looks great with that modern pillow!<br /><br />I think the story my home tells is.... "carefully curated junk" most everything I own was a someone else's cast off in some way!<br /><br />-Nico<br /><br />www.SatinAndSalt.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08806114687205212210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-38444659781193983942013-05-08T20:10:30.162-07:002013-05-08T20:10:30.162-07:00here you go...although i see it is a full $500 mor...here you go...although i see it is a full $500 more than when we purchased it 5 yrs ago.<br /><br />http://www.potterybarn.com/products/charlotte-armoire/?pkey=cmedia&the gardener's cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447809353998632722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2191490968189022599.post-57873033229973417082013-05-08T20:06:55.010-07:002013-05-08T20:06:55.010-07:00Love your chair, and it looks perfect.

Is it people just walking around a deceased estate, do you get charged to go in, how do they stop people stealing stuff?<br /><br />Sorry, so many questions.
