Saturday was the first time I dared to venture out to make a few
exchanges/returns and check out the sales since before Christmas. Unlike many,
I'm a bit of a wuss when it comes to shopping the after Christmas
sales, no matter how great the prices. I generally get the courage to
go out a few days after the crowds have subsided and usually there's
still a few stray sale items to be found.
This past weekend, I lucked into these sweet felt furniture
miniatures at
Anthropologie. I loved the overall look and
texture of them ~ probably because I kind of have a thing for felt these days. They were intended to be ornaments but
that's not how I envisioned using them. I knew I could snip the gold ornament strings off and
find a home for the wee chairs, so they could be used year round. Plus, they were just too good to
pass up at 50% off.
I think this menagerie of little felt chairs looks lovely parading across the
Pottery Barn dish (I found it at a thrift store for $1.00) and it proves true ~ good things often do come in small packages.
As we gear up for the New Year, I'm hoping your 2013 is filled to the brim with good things. Thanks for taking the time to stop by Tattered Style. Be sure to like Tattered Style on Facebook ~
