A little chat - about this and that

This -
is an old rattan ottoman/storage I have had for many years - and it has definitely seen better days - it was brown, than I painted it black - and now I have painted it silver - maybe a little too flashy?


That

is the newest dresser I am trying to purchase ( advertised as not in pristine condition )
and it comes with this!  Is it normal to get so excited about furniture? 



Oh yes - and a 2nd person contacted me about the buffet / hutch - the email reads
" hi for 50$ i will be interested thanks "
Don't know whether to laugh or cry at that, think I'll laugh because it really is a joke.
   
On another note, we have a new supplier for ASCP opening here in Montreal ( not sure when though ) - great news because although I have a wonderful supplier already she is in Bath, Ontario ( THE MELON PATCH 
check out her store - just google the name)
I will at least save on shipping fees - the paint is so expensive that I will take any savings I can get.
 Have started on this,



and think I will do this again ( it sold so quickly - maybe it's a winning formula!!! )


and that's all for now folks ;)

DID I SAY THAT?????

On December 10th - I posted the following sentence....................

" we don't have much snow here in Montreal to date, and although everyone seems to be thrilled with that, I
miss it around this time of year "

LOL




facing my house

  And from the Weather Network:

" Montreal removes snow from 4100 kilometres of streets and 6550 kilometres
 of sidewalks - the equivalent of the distance between Montreal and Beijing."

That is aprox. 6500 miles of snow - now we're talking winter in all it's glory.
God I would love to put enormous silver balls on those trees - ( sorry I see
potential glitz in everything I suppose, but wouldn't that be totally amazing? )
