The cutest little wall cabinet EVER !


Small curio as spice rack

painted spice rack

See?
I told you !






Now this is what happens every now and then to me.

I see something like this - and my heart starts pounding and I can't type fast enough to get the email out inquiring about it - and then I check my emails every 30 seconds for a reply -.and then the email comes in and I'm too afraid to open it because I don't want to know if it's already been sold   because I. HAVE. TO. HAVE. IT

HAVE. TO.

I've been looking for a unique small cabinet for ages now.............for the kitchen

AND.....................................


It's officially mine.

ALL mine !

My new spice rack !

Now you may all go forth and try to find one for yourself :)


When I sent the email to the seller - I signed it Suzan.  That's it - just Suzan and when it was still available I sent this email

S.O.L.D.!!!
My husband can pick it up tomorrow morning- does that work for you?
Thanks so much Tracy – I absolutely love it !
Need your address ( with postal code plse )
( I have a blog – and already wrote up a post for it for Monday – so I was really hoping it was still available LOL ) 

I did not mention the name of my blog whatsoever - there's hundreds of thousands of them ( if not more ) but still - this is the reply I got 

OMG, I know your blog & FB page! Simply Vintageous - (recognized your name). What a small world! I've commented on your posts in the past. Love your work & your humour & that your hubby's British (like my Mum was)! Wish you'd come with him to pick it up, would love to meet you. I've been refinishing furniture for years & started doing stuff with chalk paint about a year ago. Learned a lot reading bloggers like you & have a passion for everything old. My house is filled to the rafters with old stuff, some finished and a lot waiting for makeovers. My hubby's getting impatient with my constant mess!
Anyway, the curio will be waiting for you tomorrow, I'm home pretty much all day. 
Hope to see you,


Tracy

Can you believe that?
I mean really - can you believe that?
I can't !

Suzan says - Well you won't believe this John
John says - What now?
Suzan says - I put an inquiry in on something - and the seller KNOWS MY BLOG !
Suzan says - She's apparently even commented on it !
Suzan says - OMG - I'm like the OPRAH of Montreal !
John says - Hardly.............
John says - I hope she hasn't read any of our conversation that you're so hell bent on recording
Suzan says - SHE HAS !   SHE LOVES THAT YOU'RE BRITISH
John says - Good God - I'm going to have to start wearing a disguise when I pick things up.

We ended up staying 3 1/2 hours chatting  - more on that another time - I have a spice rack to hang up.

Have a great day everyone !
( though I suspect it'll be somewhat ruined because you don't have the cutest little wall cabinet EVER )
Hugs,
Me
( the triumphant one )
Thanks again Tracy !
