Granny's Chair

I don't have much that belonged to my granny, but I do have this Bentwood chair. It is so comfy, I use it at my sewing machine. I hope you enjoyed my bit of RED.
Have you all been to a store where an item will actually talk to you..it says "me!" pick me" Thats what happened here. I had a couple of other goodies in my hands when I came across this beautiful sugar bowl. I couldn't ignore the plea to come home with me. I put the other things away and came back to this one item. It is soooo beautiful. The little roses...aaaaah. I cant read the markings on the bottom.
I added lots of sparkly glittered pin and buttons, even to the back.

I love the bowl. It looks so pretty and I can see why it called your name.

The red chair is great. I'll bet that it makes the perfect chair for the sewing machine.

The way you placed the ribbon on the birdie's next is l]just lovely - love the folds & bends - looks like it was blown by a soft breese...
