Easter Sunday and Spring Decorating

I was lucky enough to have Spring Sunday off, so Mandy and I
headed down to Richmond to see my children. My daughter Ellie
bought a new house so we met there to see what she had done.

Very cute brick house in Henrico that she is renovating with her boyfriend Wes. My
son Edmund also showed up with his dad and we sat down and had a nice time catching
up. Then it was on to my sisters to celebrate Easter with my family. Monday I went back
to my clients house in the fan to remeasure some windows and hang her shades in her kitchen.
I left there and Mandy and I had a great time in one of my favorite haunts, Class and Trash at
Scott's Addition.  I saw a lot that I liked, but came home with another pair or French Arm Chairs,
see last years post at Easter to see the pair I brought home last time.

These two are a pretty shape, with old silk fabric and worn arms. They will hang out
with me until I can figure out what I want to do with them. I moved the 5 leg French chair
to my bedroom and really love it there.

I wanted a little color behind my sad rental stove and found this cute bird plate to hang there.

I planted some pansies in my urns last week and got out my spring wreath for the front
door.

Despite the resent snow and the maybe snow tomorrow, my Hydrangeas are coming up.

Next post will be that spring is finally here!

My Easter Visit to Richmond

 On Easter Sunday, Mandy and I drove to Richmond to send
the night with my sister and her family. She had a wonderful
dinner and relatives and siblings came over for a fun night with
a lot of catching up and lots of laughs.

 Monday we ventured over to see a few thrift stores that had just
moved over to an area called Scott's Addition off the Boulevard.
One store that was open was Class and Trash, a place that I have
blogged about, I bought a lot of things from there  Hanover store.
And again, they did not disappoint, I found a pair of French Chairs
for a song of a price.

We had a fun day shopping new and old haunts. The last stop we made before I
headed home was to one of my favorite shopping places, Impulse, a favorite consignment
shop near my old house in Richmond. It is bigger and better than ever, and I found a
piece that I couldn't resist.

I sold my painted buffet recently at Queen City Marketplace and needed another
one for the store to replace it. We have people asking for them all the time, so I
took my old one in and kept the new one, basically the same price for each just
one is much better looking.

The old one I bought a couple of years ago from Alexander's Auction House.
