Tall and stately…..

The other day while out and about the Mr.

and I stopped by an antique shop that recently sold.

We had a little bit of time and

thought it would be nice to browse around and

see what kind of goods

they had and also meet the new owners.

Imagine my surprise when I came around the corner and saw this!

-------

-------

At first when I saw the price I thought my eyes

were playing tricks on me.

I mean after all once

you turn 40 your hair really starts to grey

and new wrinkles form

on a daily basis so I thought,”Great now my eyes

are getting worse and I

need to new glasses…add that to the ever growing list.”

So I  walked away……but later

I just had to go back and look again…closer!

Sure enough the price tag stated $28!!!!

So, I called the Mr. over for him to check it out too.

It is so tall and I love the detail at the top.

It took two people to move

the column because it is not hollow…..it is solid wood!!!!!

I can only imagine the

porch it once graced for many years…..

-------

-------

I have wanted once of these

for many years

so I am tickled to death with my new find…..

and it was such a bargain too!!!!

I have been trying

to decide if I should keep the canes

in front of the column or move them!?!?

What do you think?
