a bit of jealousy

Remember this chair?
Well, it's jealous...

'cause I found this one!

It's a beautiful chair...a little rustic, a little industrial 
with burlap, weathered wood and nailheads on vintage leather.


I bought it from the same person's booth 
where I found the first chair.
It's the awesome booth "Bountiful" 
at our Lonestar Antique Mall.
So, I put this one in a corner of my kitchen 
and moved the other one
next to my kitchen table island.  
They're a perfect combination.



A few weeks before I found the chair, I found this pretty little thing.


beautiful weathered wood and sparkly old crystal door knobs

Somebody made it and I got it for a steal, 
less than the cost of one of those knobs.


I hung it on the wall...




...under my old cabinet that holds 
my collection of vintage silver and glass 
salt and pepper shakers...

...and above that new chair.

It's a great place for someone to sit and join me
while I'm in the kitchen.

We've got a couple of giveaways coming up.
The first one will be up on Monday!

    Great finds! I too love the vintage doorknob "rack"! I have one I purchased long ago but the knobs are the ceramic kind. It's been a coat rack, a bag rack and a dishtowel rack... currently it's waiting for it's new home which is undetermined.

    Those three items were meant to be together. I love the worn finishes, especially with the glass doorknobs.

    Your new blog header looks great, btw!

    I love the way you put all the weathered wood items together! A little weathered, a little sparkle, what's better then that! You certainly found some great things!

    Gorgeous pieces and a great little corner. The chair is lovely but I am seriously drooling here over the crystal knobs. BTW, I changed your blog link in my sidebar to reflect the new COTTAG3 name, don't know why I didn't do it sooner :)

    Another fabulous chair! It looks great next to the coat rack. I am still in love with that little cabinet on the wall too.

    What a beauty! It's perfect for your kitchen.

    My mother has a similar chair I keep warning her I might kidnapp sometime.
