This past weekend was perfect for shopping the local junk and charity shops and just enjoy the weather. I was so excited to find this antique Italian neoclassical sidechair (and for only $25, no joke) at my favorite
Christ Child Opportunity shop. They've been in Georgetown for generations and support a great cause which is an added bonus.
I look forward to visiting
Haute fabrics to find something appropriate for the chair to replace the green Naugahyde. Leather would be nice (calfskin?) but a deep chocolate or rust mohair would be lovely too -what do you think?
At my favorite local junk shop,
Miss Pixies, I always find inexpensive silverplate that is my harmless addiction. It's so useful and at $1 a piece you can't go wrong!
This pattern is by Century Plate and named
'Grosvenor' which seems really Adam-esque (if thats a word) to me.
I also picked up a few forks that match some of my other silver. It's amazing what a difference a little polishing will make - before and after seen above. Did you find anything exciting this weekend?
