summertime is for garage sales



June 30, 2008

this summer I’m looking for:

  • a tall narrow bookshelf i can restain/paint/decoupage for all of my books.
  • a chair with clean lines that is pretty comfortable in good shape for under $50

what I’ve found so far:

  • lots of cool old antique jewelry including a necklace with a pretty perfume bottle dangling from it, one with a whole bunch of wooden animals and a bunch of fresh water pearl necklaces
  • a free people dress for $10
  • refrigerator poetry for 10 cents
  • a sunburn

what i found last summer:

  • a vanity
  • a microwave
  • a coffee table
  • and a chair i reupholstered that’s sitting in my Tacoma bedroom. (i decorate my tacoma and bellingham bedrooms separately so i have two different rooms to visit when i want)

HELLO

Decor and home with a little bit of daydreaming and real life sprinked in. My husband and I are slowly updating our 1900 Dutch Colonial. I love hunting for vintage and flying the pacific northwest and the world with my aviator husband.
