I convinced my friend Katie we should be pickers for a day and boy oh boy did we have fun pickin’! Now I want to be a picker when I grow up.
Here’s one of my favorite finds for only .25 cents. A quarter people!
Some serious sanding, dark wood stain, and a little polycrylic finish.

She’s found a home in my master bathroom and I love her.

So cool! I love how that stool looks in your bathroom.
I have a picking hobby too. Today I posted about a plaster column I found and repainted.

looks like two stools!
I must admit – i think i liked the graffiti. Did anyone ever graffiti about you? MY husband claims that he saw 'I want to be a cake of soap in Richard Forsyth's bath' on his geography table…
love the look. Love this blog. I am a bit desperate to know what will happen when house is finito. Bit like the approach of the final episode of some great teeve show.
