Why by a new chair ? I'd rather buy the wool and "old" stuff to preserve and create with ! ha .<br />;-)<br />Lori AnnLori Ann Corelishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16354202126704718014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817148833309325011.post-17537982319095819842010-04-09T22:31:00.992-04:002010-04-09T22:31:00.992-04:00Love the pin cushion, missed you at the auction to...Love the pin cushion, missed you at the auction tonight...found some treasures!

However, I did just pick up 3 really KEWL wooden crates at a garage sale. Hmmmm... maybe a start of organized chaos! lol<br /><br />Love you make~do!<br /><br />Smiles,<br />Bettyprimitivebettyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04500730273771124193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-817148833309325011.post-7830538842872429452010-04-09T20:42:11.850-04:002010-04-09T20:42:11.850-04:00I love your make-do pincushion...My house too is f...I love your make-do pincushion...My house too is filled with make-do's - hand me downs that we started our marriage with (43 years the 22nd of April)..I never upgraded as I love the uniqueness of what I have - they all tell a story!! I have sold much better than I own but I just can't give up the memories. A chicken nester was my daughter's bureau and an old oak ice box (insides taken out and a shelf added) was my son's...(just to let you know that you are not alone in realizing what a make-do really is)!!! I love the pictures of your home.
