Super Excited. Moving in about 1 week and although the furniture is not yet ready I am! I can’t wait to get my shop running at full speed again. I have so much vintage yet to add to the site and I can’t wait!

Vintage for my Home
January 15, 2009 · Leave a Comment
My husband and I have been hunting far and wide on craigslist and in thrift stores to create our new home: We have two industrial desks from the 70s for our home office, he will be refinishing them and I hope to post photos of the projects before and after. My dearly Beloved is driving to Venice Beach to hopefully pick up a danish mid century couch which we will also be refinishing and reupholstering . But we have some fun decorations that I wanted to share. All purchased at thrift stores.
First my MAGNIFICENT Will Barnet Limited edition poster from 1978!! I walked by this in a thift shop and immediately and gleefully bought it and put it in my car. I just found out today that it’s worth a pretty penny because it’s signed in pencil =) I am very excited because my hubby and I commited to trying to only buy things which go up in value and I really did it well on this one: Best $19.99 I ever spent!
The one problem with it being worth money is I was hoping I could get on ebay and find numerous prints by him that I could afford because I loved it so much. Oh well, guess I will have to save to get one now.. bum deal.
Other randoms including more coffee cups and also an awesome inspector gadget “Vase”
If my hubby gets the couch then I will try to post before and after photos of it too!
