Today Tad went to road first thing this morning. After he went to the shop because he had to do somethings to his car so he could get it inspected for his upcoming racing event the weekend of the 14th-16th. He got home around 12Noon and I told him I wanted to go to a view different stores to see what we could find. It was important that he be with me, first to help move anything and also to drive the Tahoe. Not to mentioned, be part of the process with me. We were going to go looking and then grab a bite to eat along the way.
We visited a few antique shops. I really want to find unique items to make this look at an old world small chapel. Our first stop was a antique shop we had never been to and as we drove up we both noticed a “sofa table” that was made from concrete two antique lions with wings as the brass with a think glass top. We both loved it and Tad grabbed the tag so that no one else could while we were in the store. Since we had already found a lion that will be part of the decor, these were perfect.
We continued our hunt for a writing desk, folding chairs, holy water font (or something to serve as that) and donation box. Along the hunt we found some antique brass sconces from France that I could just see perfectly flanking the center of the Altar. We took a photo. I wasn’t sure if they were a good price or not.
We did see a writing table, but I didn’t really like it. I did find a chair that would work nicely for the table (once we find it). All in all, not a bad day.
Tad and I got the lease for the space, reviewed in and decided that we would move forward. There was nothing that we could see at this point to impeded us from moving ahead. We had to make him officially the Vice President of the ministry. He was already that anyway. It was cute to have to make that official per the document.
We didn’t find everything we needed, but we certainly found some items we were not expecting but just what I needed. The hunt continues as I make plans or the Sacred space where miracles will happen.
