First up . . . a sweet pair of end tables.
Yes, I realize this picture doesn't include the pair, but, take my word for it, the other one is exactly the same. They are flanking our couch in our formal living room. And while we're on the subject of the formal living room, the whole room is coming together! I'll share my design plan for the room with you shortly (let's just say it involves leopard, floral, dark teal, and brass).
Next up . . . the matching bad ass (sorry, that's the most fitting term for it) credenza. The piece is in amazing condition and deserves some fabulous styling. I really hate that the light switch is smack dab in the middle of that dang wall. It really puts a cramp in my style.
Look how pretty she'll look when she's all dressed up.

But that's not it . . . I also found a vintage chandelier from 1913. The coolest part about it is that it was from a landmark hotel in town. As of right now, the plan is to hang it in the master bathroom.
And last but not least . . . I found a pair of nightstands for our guest room at an estate sale in the neighborhood. P.S. Could this room be any more boring? You can kind of see a tiny sneak peek at the color I'm painting the room in the upper right corner (it's Wild Aster by Benjamin Moore).
So even though they are in no way styled, I'm super excited about these pieces! And a shout out to my wonderful husband who is the one that has to do all the heavy lifting (literally) when I find something on CL that I can't live without.
Wow, that credenza is to die for! I LOVE shopping craigslist for affordable furniture, too! PS. I'm at attorney too, so happy to have found you in the blogosphere!
ReplyDeleteI am absolutely in love with that credenza!!! Love the historic chandelier too!
ReplyDeleteYou are a Craigslist expert! These are amazing. Your home is amazing. You are amazing. :)
ReplyDeleteLove you.
Shut the front door. What? How in the world did you score those on craiglist. AMAZING. And your styling will be fantastic.
ReplyDeleteI'm telling you, that credenza is seriously bad ass. I'd be jealous, but still happy with my finds. Thanks for the awesome CL tips!
ReplyDeleteholy cow....all those finds are incredible...the chandelier is beyond.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, you can only call that thing bad a$$...it's *amazing*!!! And there is literally nothing better in my book that an amazing chandelier with a super cool back story. Nothing. (c;
ReplyDeleteSCORE!!! p.s. you may be able to move that light switch. I had our thermostat moved- it was right in the middle of a wall where we now have a large framed piece of art.
ReplyDeleteWhat great finds!! And, I agree with Megan...the light switch can be moved. But of course it means $$$ too!
ReplyDeleteThat credenza is badass...and so are your new knobs. twss
ReplyDeleteThese are just amazing!!!
