Free is always good


The previous owner left lots of items behind for us. When talking over coffee one morning with my husband, I was explaining to him that I wanted some real nautical items and not just reproduction. My husband then said that he saw an old anchor in the basement. I was very excited to hear this and requested for him to bring it up right away!! Next thing I knew I was staring at an old anchor. Eric suggested to clean it up and paint it white, but I loved the old salt staining on it... that gave it that old used feeling that I love. So, I placed the anchor in the corner of our living room. Although it looks lonely in the picture, it ties in perfectly into the room and often people over look it! Also what I love is that is was free! So, look through your old basements, sheds, crawl spaces.. you may find something worth using!
