**ChiPPy!-WhiTe-WeDnesDay** ~ Folding "Spring" Chairs!*!*!

I LoVe hooking up with Kathleen at Faded Charm for WHITE WEDNESDAYS!!!  I also enjoy viewing all the other inspiring entries as well...  Take a peek at my recent SHaBBy Finds!*!*! - Then hop on over to FADED CHARM'S BLOG...


 Sunday MoRniNg I took a drive to the Wales Antique Center's twice a year OUTDOOR MARKET, here in Wisconsin...   It's a very small venue, and a lot of dealers don't REALLY KNOW how valuable "ChiPPy" Is!!!  That was the case when I netted these "3" AmaZiNg Folding Spring Chairs!*!*!




 YES, these chippy beauties fold easily and were complete ~ no broken off parts!!!




 Just FaB PaTiNa!*!*!



The CENTER actually springs downward when you sit down...







Have a good rest of the week...  I'm off to do some "ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! ShoPPing!*!*!

It's ChiPPy WHITE WEDNESDAY ~ ChiPPy!-SHaBBy! Style!*!*!

As I get ready for this weekend's Grayslake Flea Market in Illinois, ~ I decided to take some time out & link up with Kathleen of "FADED CHARM" for ChiPPy WhiTe Wednesday!!!   Be sure to hop on over to her blog to SEE all the other entries as well...

 I netted this PeRfeCtLy Chippy White Metal Pot & Saucer a couple weeks ago when we shopped HUNT & GATHER in Minnesota...  Sorry ~ it's a keeper for now...
(click to enlarge...)







FaB Patina...  & Lacey cut-out edging...



 The Pot and Saucer's FORM matched perfectly - but I found it odd that the saucer showed strong signs of old "apple-green" paint, while the Pot showed AQUA-BLUE...















 As I was shopping for dinner at the Grocery Store ~ I spotted these GoRgeOuS Fresh Flowers and knew they were the perfect adornment for this chippy-white pot & saucer...

**ChiPPy!-SHaBBy!** Re-Purposed WHITE WEDNESDAY!*!*!

OMG!!!  I Think I'm on to a "New SHaBBy Collection"!*!*!  Some time ago I picked up a chippy old light fixture and adorned it with a decorative glass globe and votive candle...  I liked it - "but didn't love it"...  Over the weekend my SHaBBy-Eye caught a glimpse of 2-More chippy old light fixtures...  IN A GROUPING THEY'RE JUST FaBuLouS!*!*!   Sooooo my advice to you - ALWAYS BUY WHAT YOU LOVE...  SOMETIMES IT JUST NEEDS AN ADDED ADORNMENT -OR- IMPACT OF A GROUPING...
**Now Hop On Over to FADED CHARM'S White Wednesday & enjoy the rest of the entries as well**

 I'm now hooked on collecting these old light fixtures...  I think a larger grouping of different heights on an old tray would be a perfect table centerpiece!*!*!



  PaTiNa adds such unique character!!!
"Sooooo much more interesting than brand new"...


I find it perfectly acceptable to mix in a bit of color... 
I  L*O*V*E  the fluted bobeche edges...
