I've always admired the unique character of old piano stools and pick them up every chance I get. I bought this piece several years ago so my family would have an extra stool for playing the guitar, ukulele, violin and cello.

It's super cool, constructed of solid oak can adjust several inches in height. That's one of the neatest parts of the design. I LOVE that part. Who's with me on this? I can't be along because it's downright awesome! It reminds me of old swivel desk chair hardware like that on one we sold last year.

I know, I'm drawn to strange things but it's those details that really speak it me. You just don't see that kind of craftsmanship anymore in our mass produced, face paced world.
As cool as the piano stool is, the kids keep going back to the little chippy red chair that they've used since they were little and we've got a big trip we're saving up for. The girls and I are headed to Spain in 1-1/2 years so we've started selling things out of our house that we don't use anymore. (click link to continue reading...)
