SPEAKING OF ELEPHANT GARDEN STOOLS....

Life is just weird.  I've come to be a true believer in the idea that if you put something out to the universe, the universe will answer.  Hopefully it is the answer you are looking for.  Yesterday morning I did a post on Chinoiserie garden stools and how I was specifically obsessing over the elephant version.  Shortly after, I receive an email from a neighbor asking me if I had been to the estate sale in our neighborhood because it was full of items from the 60s/70s that I might be interested in.  She forewarned me that "digging" would be involved.  Since I had no knowledge of said estate sale (I'm off my game), I hopped in the car to check it out.  She was right.  Let's just say this person had a collecting problem and not the good kind.  After doing an initial once over and seeing nothing of interest, I decided to do a more thorough inspection of the back room that was piled high.  Out of the corner of my eye I saw a trunk sticking up out of the pile.  I hurried over and pulled back the boxes to unearth a very cool vintage elephant garden stool.  THANK YOU UNIVERSE!
 
Here's a quick look at my current selection.  Don't you need one of these under your tree?  Have a great weekend everyone!
