the five buck find...


so i was at the thrift store in seneca when i stumbled onto this amazing blue paisley chair... priced for like 5 bucks, i mean really, how can there possibly be a down-side. well......this also happened to be probably one of the hottest weeks of summer. i was in jeff's flex-mobile and still needed to run into a few other stores...so i ran my errands and then got back into the car and nearly passed out. it smelled of rotten mayo on lettuce, which i've honestly never smelled before, but if i did, i'm sure that's what it would be like. i couldn't figure it out- did we leave a bag of fast food trash in the car while we were driving out? it was driving me nuts and i was gasping for clean air. it wasn't until i got home and unloaded this amazing five buck find when i realized it was the chair that reeked and was currently being baked by the sun which only amplified it's lovely aroma. it took us 3 months to get that nasty smell out of the car, but on a side note, the chair did photograph really well...and this session was it's debut.
