Cottage Style Party & A Free Curbside Find!





I was on my way to work last week and slammed on the brakes when I saw this vintage lounger by the curb on trash day.


I've been looking for a cheap one for a long time and had missed out on one at the Goodwill last year.
I never thought I would find a free one at the curb!


I decided to paint it to match my table and chairs in French Lilac.


I loved it in black but it looks so good in French Lilac!


The floral detail really pops now!


This pillow is a nice finishing touch…no cushion needed as it is comfy just like this.


I am the Queen of Hoarded Fabric and pulled this out of my stash to make a pillow cover.


It looks so great next to my curbside find cottage fencing and $5 birdbath!


Just $12 worth of spray paint I had on hand brings out its true potential!


I can't wait to take a nap in it!






Hello Friends!

Welcome to this weeks

Cottage Style Party

#111




Here we go…another week of me messing things up and apologizing!

I am so sorry about the lack of a party link up from last week.
I'm not sure what happened?

It was there when I did my last review and then *poof* gone.
This week I noticed it disappeared again
so I added a new one only to find out there were 2 listed in the preview.
Perhaps it is not me!

Then again…!


Let's get this party started and if the link up is not there please let me know!




This is such a lovely centerpiece of sunflowers for JoAnn's luncheon.
I love the pops of purple liatris in this bouquet!


Pop over to JoAnn's blog Scene Through My Eyes to see her lovely MacBeth Evans dishes in pretty pastels.
Don't miss her adorable set of roly poly glasses in a caddy!






A cup of tea in the sand at the beach?
Why, yes!


This wonderful vintage find has a seagull and beach motif making it perfect for the beach!
Stop by and visit Shawn's blog Poetry in a Pot of Tea to see the details of this seaside seagull tea cup!








I am in love with this collection of transferware!
So pretty displayed on the wall of Cecelia's home.


Some of these dishes cost as little as 25 cents!
Hop on over to Cecelia's blog My Thrift Store Addiction to see the details of her thrifted collection!

Cottage Style Party #41




Remember last week when I snuck this chair...




into the end of my post?



It was a free curbside find that was great on its own 

but I thought it might have a brighter future.




As a navy blue chair...






Yep, same chair, different color!





Here they are side by side:




 



So much better in blue!




I added a seat cushion wrapped in a lap quilt


and a comfy pillow.



Now its ready for lounging...awww....yeah....




Watch it...I wield a mean can of spray paint!







Gratuitous flower photos ahead...









Still loving my cottage fencing curbside find!

















Welcome to week #41 of the 



Cottage Style Party!



I am so impressed with all of your 

wonderful cottage style from last week!



You are making it so tough to pick only 3 to feature!


But I will try...







Not only do I love these tulips in this sweet pitcher, 

but can you believe that stone house behind the tulips?

Whoa!



Bop on over to Carmen's blog Loving the Countryside for a walk through the past!






This is such a soft and pretty display!

I love the chippy window frame, the pitcher of flowers and the romantic candles!




Stop by JoAnne's blog A Pocketful of Blue to see more details of her sofa table redo!








Can you believe this lovely display is in the bathroom? 


I just adore the demijohns, old wind up clock and pitcher of lavender(!).




Drop into to Must Love Junk to see 

the most fabulous toilet paper display I have ever seen!
