I was honored to do so. My friend (Zaire) came across these as a neighbor was about to THROW THEM IN THE DUMPSTER!!!! She asked if she could have them for her nieces. HOW CRAZY THAT SOMEONE WAS ACTUALLY GONNA THROW THESE AWAY!!! The picture above is the BEFORE pic, there was a tag (UNDER PENALTY OF LAW) in the bottom of the highchair that had dates of July 3, 1926, April 24, 1929 and 1948 printed on the tags.</span><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5y-XFf3ELpIkO8EGNwh8VaKMtyqMWRDXVE6knGYIfzo8bHrJHwEC50qcPCjgK9fqmm8pVlXoJzl37LI7Na6e4Orob5BZwOkE6_1cGcQvua468jnobWQoeUcI1uYnEguWviOtKJVnT5r4/s1600-h/Rios+pictures+2+1801.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255510277073306578" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5y-XFf3ELpIkO8EGNwh8VaKMtyqMWRDXVE6knGYIfzo8bHrJHwEC50qcPCjgK9fqmm8pVlXoJzl37LI7Na6e4Orob5BZwOkE6_1cGcQvua468jnobWQoeUcI1uYnEguWviOtKJVnT5r4/s320/Rios+pictures+2+1801.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;color:#663300;">And here's the AFTER!!!

This is my "hutch" I could not find an afforable hutch so I took a green table I already had and painted it white and added the top of a BATHROOM organizer that I got from Target (Rachel Ashwell Shabby Chic Collection) The base of the bathroom oraganizer was really skinny since it's meant to go above a toilet, hehe so I have that in my livingroom right when you walk in. I think it's a good temporary fix till I can find me my dream cottage farm house white hutch :) I would like to add that my good friend Steph (Shabby Girl) made me that cupcake sign as a gift she also gave me the Jenny Heid Holiday girl print which I double framed myself.
