Just sit right back & you'll hear a tale...

I was shooting about in Los Gatos (lurvely, leafy swanky neighbourhood not too far from Mountain View) the other weekend. Looking for buttons... but I feel you might all need some respite from the "Knitting Adventures of Shona".... And I drove past these outdoor chairs sitting on the side of the road with a "FREE" sign on them. Awesome timing as Mr Chrubuky & I had been lamenting over our budget that very morning. Always one for a bit of bargain hunting, I stopped & grabbed them (well, I stopped, spoke to the lady getting rid of them, then took them)


I stopped by Jo-Anns fabric shop this arvo & picked up this discontinued fabric to cover over the hardcore 80-ness of the chairs. Not the best picture of the fabric - it has hand sketched bontanical pictures on it with the odd panel coloured a dark watermelon pink.

And the balls....we shall not speak their names.

Haven't you heard the 80's is back (or is that only here, hmm) you should show that lovely brown and beige off!!
