Here are a few things we picked up today, thanks to Craig's List (LOVE IT) and the Habitat for Humanity Re-Store (LOVE IT). GREAT prices on some beautiful pieces, that need just a little bit of TLC...and let me tell you, beautiful pieces, I have all kinds of TLC for you...sander...primer...paint or stain...pretty hardware....can't wait!
This bench was salvaged from an old building in downtown Milwaukee--some sanding, some light stain--it will be beautiful in our foyer!
This dresser is amazing--pretty good shape..the hardware is original and is so beautiful. Good construction--dovetail drawers, solid wood, etc. The man we bought it from said it dates to probably the 1940s..and we have the vanity to match (see below)
I don't know why I love this table--but for $7 at the Habitat Restore how could I resist? I see a coat of sunflower yellow---or maybe red in the future for this gem!
The vanity! The mirror is over on the side, it is round, and it is HUGE and it is heavy--the vanity (like the dresser) is in great shape--and there is a little bench as well (not pictured). Incredible stuff, don't you think? Stay tuned for the after pictures--but those won't be for a while. I am not trying anything on these pieces yet--I have some other things to practice on..but I am too tired to photograph them now
House updates? Believe it or not, we haven't been there since THURSDAY! Maybe later tonight! hahahaha
lamps--please envision with a coat of spray paint--satin nickel or bronze?
40 pulls for the cabinets...$20.
8 for $2--not sure what they will be used for, but they are gorgeous!
$1--it called to me...oh little orange poppy needlepoint!
For Collin's room! We are going to hardwire it!!!!
OK--of to make dinner now...starving!
