Midday Muse: Washed Out Wonder

November 12, 2007

While I enjoy picking up a new home object as much as the next person, I find that there's something even more charming about an object with history. The frayed edges, the washed out, sun-bleached fabrics, and the obviously well-used and well-loved lines of this furniture all hint at a history that I can only ponder. Who sat in this chair? What conversations took place?

There's vintage, and there's lovingly used, and then there's "Who bled to death in this chair?" Seriously, yikes.

It looks like something you'd see on the side of the road with a "free" sign on it!

lol esix I still love a good garage sale or second-hand store find. Maybe not this particular chair, but a well-kept, sturdy furniture find is the bee's knees.
