Studly Doright is playing in a two day golf tournament at his course this weekend. It’s his first tournament since undergoing minor back surgery several months ago. He’s only played a couple of rounds in the past few weeks, so this tournament will be a test of his fortitude as well as his golfing skills.
Rather than sit at home doing nothing, I drove into Tallahassee and bummed around, finally stumbling onto a neighborhood garage sale. It was 10:30 a.m. before I found the sale, and most of the homes were running low on merchandise. In garage sale shopping the early bird truly does get the worm.
I wasn’t searching for anything specific, though, so I parked at one home and walked from sale to sale enjoying the mild weather and visiting with folks along the way.
Then I saw this piece:


It’s a wicker vanity chair with a built-in hamper. I’d never seen such a thing, so even though I have no idea where I’m going to put it I bought the silly thing for $5.00. The chair needs a new cushion and perhaps a coat of paint to cover up the marks on the front of the hamper.
I’m calling the first photo, Studly Doright Will Just See an Ugly Old Chair, and the second one, Surprise! It’s also an Ugly Old Hamper.
Peace, people!
Hmm…I see a cat bed and hiding place in the convenient drawer. Any cats?

Two cats, and Zoo must say I pictured them sleeping on the cushion.

I like anything rattan but what a weird thing to combine with the chair… at first I thought it was a pull-out foot rest.

That would’ve been better. It’s odd to think one would want to sit on top of dirty clothes.

Perhaps to hold knitting or embroidery supplies>

I am not sure why someone would want to sit on a hamper, but hey, whatever rocks your boat. It’s a unique piece, that’s for sure. Perhaps it’s not a hamper, but a toy storage?
