finding treasure...


This two-seater 'love seat' was broken, rust covered and abandoned when I found her in a local brocante. I scooped her up and found someone to do a little welding, a lot of sanding and a few coats of 'greige' paint. The vintage linen cloth that I had saved for 'just the right thing' was measured, cut and sewn...and here she is, sitting in the garden as good as new.

She's a favourite now...sometimes it is the abandoned that become our best loved treasures.

Happy, happy, weekend.....xv
