..................hi sunshines......meet rocker girl! :).....she is a very old little thing....but way sturdy for her age.....someone loved her a lot......but......she had such dry skin...............and a plain worn seat...........so after a little make-up.......paint and fabric.........now she shines............re-surfaced...........sanded....ever so lightly...........creamy wax.........and a new skirt..............she is ready for a new home...........................for a child or a cottage patio............so sweet....................and very comfy! :) hugs kat =^.^=
.....of course the fabric is a wonderful turquoise........my fave color of all time..........pared with a lovely shade of brown......nice design..........I love her...............and just so happy with how she turned out!
Love your sweet rocker, and the fabric is gorgeous. I am going to do some changing of my decor, and plan to have blasts of turqoise as my new color.
ReplyDeleteStill missing Boulder City, but guess that will never change. Oh, well. At least in Florida there are so many retired people that the parking spaces are much larger than other areas. This, I like. HA!
Good to find you posting again.
Take care.
Oh Hi Ellie so glad you are doing fine! You are so funny!Love it! :) Glad to hear you are updating..as that is always fun....the hunt for the treasures! :) lol Be sure to stop over to the blog....house of turquoise! SHE is one of my faves....as this color has always been the very favourite...since I was a child! :) She has some great pictures...all featuring this color......stay well and happy! hugs kat =^.^= PS as I type it is 109 deg! :(
DeleteSo happy to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteOh, my. I spelled turquoise incorrectly in my first message.
You can see and read about my current home on Shelley's blog. I have followed Shelley for quite some time - before moving to Florida. I was so confused in styling my abode down here; it was so overwhelming. I love everything I have, but was just close to my possessions. So I hired Shelley to style. She is fabulous, and I think you will also like her blog. She is also on Facebook and Pinterest, and posts lots of amazing pictures.
And, now, after living in Mt. Dora for only 2 and 1/2 years, I am moving to Lake Mary, Fl. As I may have mentioned, I really don't like living where I do. OOPS. Think I may have already told you this. HA! A few times . . . ? ? ? Lake Mary is only 20 miles away, and is one of the surrounding areas of Orlando. I will be closer to my son and his family, and I am REALLY downsizing. But, I am finally ready to do this, and will sell many of my prized possessions. Never thought I would be able to do this. NOW I can't wait. So, Shelley will again style my new apartment, and I will do some changes in decor. Want to be more formal shabby, with touches of the unique and out-of-the box stuff.
Anyway, this is the link. Enjoy her blog.
