My Weekend Find

So, we had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. ?? Our weekend consisted of sleeping in, eating too much, building a chicken coop ? and antique shopping. Aaron and I truly enjoyed a long weekend!

I spotted this old milking stool during one of our trips to the antique mall. I immediately fell in love!!? For the locals, I found it at Angel’s Antique in a booth called Pampered Picks from the Past.

I try to always spot old chippy white pieces. ?? For instance, chippy white side tables, windows and architectural pieces. Here’s why, A- Nothing screams farmhouse style like white paint chipping off to expose wood. B- Chippy white tells a story. (In my case, the story of some farm animals.) ? ?

I knew I loved this little stool. ? My mind began envisioning all the spots in my home it would go. ? Helpful Hint – If your mind does this on a piece, there’s a good chance you need to buy it.?? Sure enough, this chippy jewel didn’t make it past the kitchen. It found a home beside my open shelves.
