Shabby Patio Chairs

Aren't these just the best?
I recently purchased these from the nicest lady who advertised them on Craigslist. I often go to Craigslist and type in "Shabby Chic." I always find a variety of items listed.
Well, this gal was in my neighborhood. She moved to a smaller apartment and didn't have room for these. I'd been looking for outdoor chairs for my upstairs balcony patio. These are so chippy and shabby...just couldn't pass them up! Now they're sitting up there looking ever so happy and at home. I've thrown some seat cushions on them, for now. My husband has enjoyed sitting in them. Later, I'll add some comfy throw pilows, or quilted throws. I'm waiting to find just the right ones. I'll take some pics soon.
I'm loving these chairs!

Happy cottage-loving day!

Those are great!! Our CraigsList is being overrun by people who think something from the 60's is an antique. They are over-pricing everything. I wish I could find reasonable people with great items like that around here!!! :)

Oh, I love them also. Perfect for a cozy little nook! I have never shopped on that. I guess I shall get on there and type in the same!
