Retro

 


Every time my daughter would go to my Dads house for their weekly visit.   Dad would ask her if they needed this orange chair that was sitting in my old bedroom.    They had bought their first home and Dad wanted to make sure they had plenty of furniture.     They always said no they were fine.   But then when Dad passed last fall and we were all at the house starting to clean out his home.   Leslie was very sentimental over the chair because she new her Papa always wanted her to have it.   So they decided to take it home and at least put in storage till they had a plan.   Her husband said he really liked the other chair too.   So they took them both home and no storage was needed.   They rearranged their  living room and put them in there.   They are real happy with the retro look now and my granddaughter loves the chairs too because they remind her of her great-grandpa.

I used sketch #452 at  "SKETCHES IN THYME"  for my layout.
