More Kubu Wicker and a Winner!


Look what I found at Marshalls and TJ Maxx!
Kubu wicker dining chairs, perfect for the rustic outdoor table under the mulberry tree.
At first, I was only able to locate four at various TJ's and Marshalls, but eventually gave up all that driving around and found two more from CSN Stores and had them shipped.

I think they look very similar to the Restoration Hardware outdoor chairs that retail for a whole lot more.Unfortunately, since they aren't outdoor wicker, they will have to be stored inside during the winter. It's a small trade-off!

And now for the winner of the Joanne Hudson cheese platter:
drumroll please...

Amy at Homestead Revival! Yay!!!!

I want to thank you all for your interest in this giveaway. I received over 300 entries!
Congratulations Amy!

    Thank you, Delores! I'm so thrilled to win the cheese platter! Perfect for the cheeses I hope to make soon.

    BTW - those chairs are EXACTLY what I've been looking for to go in my sunroom/library table. I'm headed to TJ MAXX tomorrow!

    I love the look of your chairs outside. I purchased the same one as a desk chair at Winners (Marshalls Canadian version). Super that the cushions were included.

    Do you happen to have a link for the website where you purchased the other 2 from? I found 3 of these at TJMaxx and having a hard time finding another one. I was looking at these and wasn't sure which of these would be the right match -
