I am a great waiter. Not like, serving-food-at-a-restaurant-waiter, like delayed-gratification-waiter. I’d rather hold out for something that I really love than get something that I sort of like. Along those lines, I’m still waiting to find a few ‘just right’ components of Piper Jane’s nursery- the most important being a lovely, girly, glam chair.
With the brown place-holder-chair in place, I began my vintage-girly-chair search in earnest. And actually, I didn’t find anything for the longest time. But then, about a month ago, the heavens opened to make a halo of glory (ok, actually, a Halo of Potential) around this green, velvet, makeover-ready chair at my favorite thrift store, Mile High Thrift.
The Little Miss Priss is more than thrilled with her new chair- and I am loving having a spot to snuggle and read together. So lovely!
