Chaise Lounge Chair

So one day
last spring when we were on our way to the cottage, I spotted this chair at a yard sale. Now I want you to know that my husband does not drive at a yard sale pace. He does not want me to spot anything, let alone buy it and drag it home. But, this time he actually stopped, turned around and we went back to the sale. For $5.00 I got this sweet chaise lounge chair! Reminds me of a blue one my mom had back in the sixties! One thing I've noticed about it though, it seems more narrow and shorter than chairs today. Were people smaller back then?

  1. Beth,
    What an amazing find. My grandparents had a similar one. They are so comfortable and sooo vintage. Glad your husband stopped. We are having 70's today... Let the Spring Fever begin!!

    Happy Trailers,

  2. Oh Nancy, I am so jealous of your 70's! We were having snow showers on my way home from school today. Definitely not camping weather! I have checked out your other blogs. Love all those vintage collectibles in your antique mall :)
    Happy trails,

  3. I love the ironing board but that tablecloth is over the top. Love your banner, such beautiful pillows and quilt.

  4. Hi Karen. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I have a little collection of tablecloths but this one is definitely a favourite. It's fun to decorate around Betty outside, even though she's mostly a bunkie at our cottage.
    Happy trails,
    Beth
