Out of the Boxes

I was going to keep y'all waiting to see what was in those boxes that were delivered,  but I will go ahead and show you seeing that I am nice like that.

The original bar stools I had in the kitchen were so heavy and hard to move that I wanted something different and easy to handle.

Here is a reminder of what the old ones looked like. Some of you will probably prefer the old ones. This is what they looked like after I recovered the seats with red ticking and painted and distressed the backs.

I read that these are just like ones found in French cafes, but at a much better price. I wouldn't know since I have never been in a French cafe. These are from overstock. Where else?

I have four of these since they come two in a box. These will be easy for the grands to climb up on when they get a little older. The extra one is in the laundry room ready to pull out when needed.

When I need to move these out of the way I can just stack them and put them away.

The kitchen actually feels larger and more open without the chair backs that were on the other stools.

I am trying to get used to the bold red. I couldn't decide between the black and red and chose red. These are metal so they can be painted if needed later.

If you are interested in these they come in black, red and silver and come in counter and bar height. The red ones were only $80 for two which I think is a grand deal. I also got them at an extra discount and saved even more.

Now the other stools will go to the consignment store.

On another note, Mr. Savvy hurt his lower back some how yesterday and is now knocked out on the sofa in the great room. I am taking care of him and I have Leila today, too. So I will be tending to two babies if you get my drift!
