Granny Style

Our house was built in 1958 so we thought we would roll with that era in one of the rooms. Eric is almost always up for anything vintage, but I found myself really diggin' the 50's stuff as well.






















Above: This diamond in the rough was graciously donated to our cause by Eric's Grandma Marie. Eric polished it into its former glory.






















Above left: This cookie jar is identical to the one his other grandma, Myrt, had in her kitchen. Definitely good for some warm fuzzies on the Rowland side!


Most of the problem was isolated to the kitchen, but one item did spill into our office when we came upon this unbelievable find at an estate sale. Our buddy Brad tried to convince me that the guy actually died on this couch (or is it a davenport?) Nonetheless, we will be enjoying its 'mid-century' splendor. Not recommended for those wearing shorts.





















Please note that this couch also contains a full size hide-a-bed. Visitors encouraged.
