Margaritaville!

so...... last weekend, Robert & I spent Sunday getting Margaritaville ready for YOU! (Oops, that sounds like we desparately want company..... wait - we DO!)

You saw our fabulous chairs (previous post below), and I must confess that the bug has bit me but good. I am hopelessly drawn to junk that can be painted or modified in some kewl way to fit into our veraown Margaritaville.

(this is the bug...)

Sooo.... yesterday, while sitting at the outside cafe' Kiosco sipping on a fabulous glass of red sangria - I run into a friend whom I haven't seen in awhile and she twists my arm (not really necessary) into goin junkin'! Hmmm.... I've already been to Alchemy and got a great pair of orange dangly earrings, got a fabulous haircut that morning at Hair by the Square, and a little beverage - of course I'll go.

(this is the very glass of sangria I told you about!)

Goodwill first stop - found a 60's chartruese vanity stool just perfect the way it is for $4! (did I mention that I simply love a bargain?)

Then, we venture over to A Classy Flea where lo and behold, I saw her! It's like destiny or karma hit that very moment! Sitting right out front and beckoning 'buy me, buy ME! was this parrot, whom we later named Pearl. Check her out below for a unbelievable transformation!

(What's that you're hiding Pearl?!)

But wait! Do you love to talk as much as I do? Well, here's a blast from the past - a Gossip Bench! You'll have to check back later for an update of what the final product looks like. It very well may wind up in the Beatles room......



Well, it's time to get a move on - so I'll end this for now - but not before wishing all of my favorite Mothers a Happy Mother's Day!
