Movie Star Furniture

Let's try this again......

A few days ago I received a message from Bianca informing me that my blog (or Photobucket I should say) was having some issues. I was out and about and only had my phone on me, so in a moment of panic I just deleted the entire last post I had done. Come to find out, it was actually my entire blog that was having issues. So, I'm now RE-writing that post. For those of you who read the post (sans pictures) hopefully it's somewhere close to the original.

Last week we had a visit at the store from two of our vintage furniture dealers. They are such fun guys with one of the most fun jobs. They, as always, pulled out all kinds of fun pieces but when they brought out one piece in particular, my heart almost fell out of my chest. It was the most perfect old pine table.

These guys have been granted special access to movie production studios, where they go in and clean out old movie props. The pieces are actual vintage pieces, they just aren't being used anymore.

The studios track the pieces with bar coded stickers. The fun part is, the guys always leave the stickers on.

My little pine table starred in some long-lost Dreamworks movie somewhere in its' lifetime. Truth be told - the first thing I checked when I got home was which production studio was behind any Nancy Meyer movie....unfortunately, not Dreamworks. The mystery continues...

This next picture is for you, Janet! Here's a wide-angle look at our entry : )

I was having a little "girl's night out" at our house and decided to spruce up our entry with some fresh flowers. It's Ranuncula season right, and with the Ranuncula fields right up the street - they're everywhere!

Also in full bloom right now - our lemon tree! It's the one thing I can actually grow. We have so many that I'm literally filling random bowls around our house.

I hope everyone had a great weekend and thank you for sticking with me through my technical difficulties!
