{Undressed}

This gal may be old, but
she's got beautiful bones, doesn't she?
Somewhere through the years,
she got "undressed",
but I think that's part of her charm.
 I keep thinking about getting her
reupholstered, she's elegant just the way she is,
even if not very practical as furniture.
 If I had a bricks and mortar shop,
I'd let her great everyone at the doorway.
 I wonder what she looked like in her younger years.
 I'm sure she was a real "looker".
 This gal is slightly younger, but still pretty old.
She had "clothes" when I got her,
but my mom and I thought we could 
give her a new dress.
 As you can see, we didn't get very far.

 But I think she's quite pretty this way too,
even though she's slightly under-dressed.
 Someday, I hope to finish her "clothes"
so she can be used again.
 But the day was so beautiful, I decided to 
give them both some fresh air and sunshine.
And to let them I know I think they 
are lovely...just the way they are.
 My daughter's horse wasn't terribly impressed
when I put the pretty, linen on his back.
I had to sneak it on him, because
when I first walked up to him with it,
it made him nervous and he wouldn't
let me near him with it.

Hope you are having a day filled with lots of beauty.
Blessings,
Angie

  1. Have one of these naked chairs. She hides-out in the barn.

    maybe I should take her out of there and show her some daylight and affections!

  2. I think horsey needs a hat! LOVE those great chairs! I could sure see one all decked out in laces!
    Or maybe the horse prefers lace....

  14. What beautiful photos. I love the bare chairs - for some reason, they kind of remind me of the old dress-forms. Maybe it's the wood and old fabric? Not sure. Thanks for sharing these lovely pictures, I'll to keep an eye out for an old chair like yours!
