They Were Even Better in Person

As I was trolling Craiglist - Lansing one night, per the usually week night internet trompsing, I stumbled across one posting that had me at "Rusty Horseshoe Antiques ***SALE*** (Grand Ledge)." Of course, every picture my jaw dropped and Matt's telling me "Easy over there" as I drool all over my phone screen. You know this stuff makes me week in the knees.

I notice at the bottom of the post "Check us out on Facebook to stay up to date on all the happenings." Well DUH, why wouldn't I? So, I do and I like her page, which then results in the taunting and teasing of items showing up on my news feed on the daily. Welllllll.... one day there's a post I can't resist. I fall in love and know these chairs will work perfectly for my dream dining room table that is yet to be. 

So, what does a girl do? She sacrifices her red dinette table & some cash and welcomes 6 of these into her life. Timing was perfect. My sisters, mom, and I were heading out for an obvious never silent always loud with laughter fun day of manicures and Cuginos. So, we..well Matt & Mike (his dad).. loaded up my table into the burb. After Matt's reminder that he didn't want to see the table return (this is a whole other post) we were on our way.

They were even better in person. So, I bought them.





My plan is to someday have Matt build me a large wood farmhouse table. I'm slowly learning to bridge Matt & I's styles. It's a work in progress....my inspiration comes from this.







I highly recommend Rusty Horseshoe Antiques in Grand Ledge. It was my first time in there today, but it will not be my last.
