Old furniture shopping.

Up at 8am.
Very comfortable sleep on Emily’s bus mattress.
She has set up the room beautifully for me xx

Breakfast.
Then we headed off looking for a table for her deck and anything else old that caught her eye.
First, a quick tour of Woopi and Emily pointed out units that she had discovered for rent.
Went to the $2 shop.
Got matching very pale grey curtains for the entrance and lounge room ... and Emily chose a black and cream striped hammock for the deck.

Then to see the 2 ladies with the second hand shop that Emily got her couch, coffee table and bed from.
Great shop but nothing really new in their since Emily was in there yesterday. 😁

Onto the old junk shop on the bend near Sandy Beach.
Martine sent us there last time but because we were in the bus and van, we couldn’t really buy anything then.

Big change this time.
Walking in, still in the front yard, saw a wonderful old wooden dining table $80.
Emily said, “I’ll take that.”
Walking around I saw 2 old carver chairs.
I asked the price.
“ I had $30 each on those. You can have them for $15 each.
Emily ... “We’ll take them”

Rang Daryl.
He would come with his Ute to pick up the furniture.

Wandering round, I found the most wonderful picture of a old combi.
Framed in black like her other photos.
This was lovely.
$30.

So, Daryl arrived.
He and Emily loaded up the Ute.
Back here...

Everything looks AMAZING!
Table and 4 directors chairs arranged on the deck.
Emily took the awful green seat covers off the carvers to reveal the original leather seats.
They look fantastic.

Emily walked past the house next door, across the road and into Woolworths Supermarket
(It’s THAT close)
For pies for lunch, sitting at the old deck table.

We hung the new curtains.
They look amazing!

Lacey and I went to visit Daryl and Matine.
The new deck that Daryl built is fantastic.
The garden looks great.

Back here.
Emily had hung the hammock on the deck.
Wow!

Dinner at the coffee table watching Netflix.

Bed.
Early. 8.30pm.
I’m tired.

Great, great day.Baca selengkapnya
