I’ve got to stop doing this, writing my White Wednesday post on Thursday! I don’t seem to be able to get anything done these days…..
I found this little lovely at the local Club G.W., having fallen in love with the white chippy frame.
It wasn’t until I got home and noticed the printing on the back of the frame that I realized it was made in Chicago. It read “Dennite…..Chicago Illinois.”
So I looked it up and found a few similar ones on ebay. The two I found on line were floral prints but still quite similar to mine (all Dennite and made by Dennstedt Art. Co.) and they’re dated somewhere between the 1920’s and 1930’s. So, my lady here could be 81 or even 91 years old! Not bad for my $1.99 purchase!
Oh, and the white behind the frame is my awesome white chippy window, snagged up at the Kane County Flea Market last weekend. Quite a score, I love it! Although I KNOW Mr. CBD is scratching his head and saying, “You brought home an old, dirty window ~ for what?” So hard to explain! I'll have to share it in it's full glory next time.
I had visions of trading out the original picture for something else, but perhaps I’ll leave it be? I mean, she seems pretty happy.
Have a great weekend!
I'll be linking up here:
