an item of longing

Every now and then (but more like every week) I find an item that I long after. Remember the story of the kitchen table? Darn you Pinterest and Apartment Therapy. Sometimes the feeling passes and I go without, but sometimes I just can't shake the want, convincing myself it is a need. Being cheap, I endure the search for the best bargain, which sometimes helps the longing to pass. This adorable, baby bejos sized, vintage chair is one of those items.
Many of you probably received an email to keep an eye out for this item at a garage sale, flea market, or antique store. And mr. bejos has endured many a trip into a store in the off chance that they have one of these little chairs.

The longing didn't pass. Not this time. I broke down. I bid on Ebay, aggressively, waiting until there were 10 seconds left, throwing in my very top bid of what I wanted to offer for this piece.

This little chair makes me happy, but more importantly it makes the baby bejos happy.

He has loved it since I lifted it unused out of it's box, it's original 1968 box. Score!

Is my search over you ask? Nope. I would love a pair of these chairs. So keep your eyes open and let me know if you score a little Cosco Go Seat.
