"Follow Up (O.M.G.)"

     On my way home from a routine trip last Saturday morning, I see a garage sale sign and make a gut feeling to stop and cheek things out. Well, I'm glad I did because while parking I see this "old looking" cot and instinctively think of several ways to incorporate it into any living space.

     For example, if you have open floor space area under a sunny window place several stacks of your favorite magazines and books. Or just simply roll it up for some good summertime reading at the beach, park or your backyard. Best part, the price ($5.00) and I was thrilled to pack it up and take it home.

     I'm sure you might have some decorating ideas and I'm anxious to hear them, so leave me a comment. Until next time....The Blue Farmhouse.

     Happy collecting and thrifting!

    Thank you Melinda, you're so kind. I'm almost finished and this mirror is beautiful. Of course my kids white! So I can hardly wait to show you. Hopefully by Thursday. Thanks, again Melinda.

    Thanks Koralee. I'm actually going to stage one of the ways I visualize the function of this old cot. And, I do appreciate your visit.
