Shopping, but not for shoes!

Who can go shoe shopping when there are garage sales everywhere?
I love this teak chair, footrest and side table. Looks like the perfect place for a lifeguard to catch some rays, eh?
And plaster is so cool! Check out this bust I picked up today. update: SOLD!
This wicker piece is primitive and sturdy. Can't you see a fern overflowing on it?
The white frame is actually an old mirror. The glass still has just a touch of the silvering on it.
I'm not sure when I am going shoe shopping, as these goodies need to get to Primitiques and/or Winnie & Tulula's tomorrow. And how many garage sales will there be between Poetry and Athens? Ahhh!

Happy Friday!

    So are you gonna wear the table on one foot and the footrest on the other? Focus, girl, focus!

    Debbie, you are so right. Maybe Saturday will be for junking and Sunday, after church, can be a designated foot day. Shoe shopping and a pedicure. David likes pedicures, so I bet it won't be hard to talk him into that!

    Have fun, Erin!

    Malisa, you and Debbie are right. I am so easily distracted.

    Pam, this is not how I make my living. But, it IS fun!

    Buy shoes in Boston, you silly girl. Keep shopping, you are on a roll. Wish ours (which are everywhere, too) were as productive.

    I'm with you, shoe shopping would have been low on my list too!

    It looks like you found some great things.
