Featured Thrift store furniture

No contest. I saw a little side table in the ReStore today that Ghopper would have eyed, and Brad too. 1850-ish probably. Drop-leaf probable mahogany top with a drawer with its original glass knob pull. Dividers in the drawer, for what I'm not sure. The base had paw feet and wheels, and was carved within an inch of its life. I doubt it's still there. Somebody else was eyeing it up and asked when it would be priced. Heck, if I had a use for it I'd have called dibs.

 

$49.00
Cheap at any price.

 

Brand new and already landfill.

I had to go IKEA for our bedroom back when we were still using cardboard boxes to hold our clothes and only had a metal frame to hold our bed. I had hand me down vintage and a single trip to a NC furniture maker clearance for the rest of the house, but my old bedroom set was 60s little girl fantasy (from mom) and the husband only had a single and no furniture.

It's the last room I have to replace things in. I said I'd do it when we moved someday, but we never have. So now I'm on the lookout but it's extremely hard to find a bed I like in a queen, and then complimentary furniture in dressers (plural), tall, but not wide wardrobe and nightstands all together so I don't have a weird set up. Especially because I dream of having a bed with a canopy. Scrooge chic lol. I had a less substantial one as a kid and I can't let the dream go. I figure I'll be haunting the local auction houses forever. Or until I have less clothes (HA).
