Buffet - It's a Beauty!

This is a beautiful piece. It was love at first sight and full of potential. With a beveled mirror to boot. A bit of sanding, tightening some screws, a fresh coat of paint and it's as good as new. A total charmer.

All the curves boast loads of personality. There must be loads of history too.
Can you imagine all the family gatherings this buffet has seen? The parties. All the china it must have dutifully stored in it's drawers?
I wonder who it belonged to originally.
Nana Muriel? Aunt Eleanor? I imagine it given as a wedding gift a lifetime ago.

The Ball jars? Good story.
The very nice person I bought the buffet from said this:
nice buffet person: "Do you need canning jars? Do you can? me: "Not really, only if they're blue." nice buffet person: "Hmm, I think I have some."
He brought out and handed me six. He would not take money for them. He donated them to the cause of fabulous aqua jar happiness and finding them good home.
So nice. Thank you!

I had a bit of a fun weekend and am in recovery! Besides finding and redoing this fab buffet, I played a bit. I am happily exhausted. xo jeanne.
