That’s it!
And we are pooped.
Thank you, thank you, thank YOU to all those fine, fabulous and funny folks for coming out to little old Hemet to peruse our vintage wares. The big sale was a raging success and there just might be some crazy plans in the works to spend that new found dough. I smell a bathroom remodel cooking…
Just a reminder that the BIG OLD ESTATE SALE is happening this Saturday, June 12 from 9am – 4pm. Lots and Lots and Lots and Lots of killer stuff, as well as a few surprise items not pictured! We are packed to the gills and raring to go.
Hope to see you there it should be fun! I’m so scared, my social anxiety is totally kicking in.
*Just an update, these items are sold: Orange Fireplace, Furry Bench, Slat Bench, Hanging Egg Chair, Panton Lamp, Eames Lounge Chair, Cube Table Pair, White Sofa, Faux Bamboo Patio Chairs, Rattan Ottoman Pair, Red Retractable Lamp, Yellow Hamper, Mosaic Coffee Table, Albini Ottoman, Danish Rocker.
I don’t know if anyone has noticed but I have gone a whole month without thrifting – which must be some sort of crazy miracle. We’ve been so consumed with prepping and painting the exterior that all that fun weekend free time evaporated into sunburns, sore backs and clumps of paint stuck in various body hair.
This Sunday there was a freak thunderstorm that rolled into Hemet that destroyed our plans to finish up painting the front of the house. I took the opportunity to break my thrifting dry spell and hit up a 50% off estate sale and a couple of thrift stores including the brand new Goodwill (Hemet’s one and only).
The estate sale was pretty much a depressing bust but I went enticed by and ended up buying this vintage spider leg table. I’m kind of clueless about where to put it in the house but was sold on the low price and elegant curves. When I pulled up to the house with my loot the Boy sarcastically stated, “Oh, another table? Yeah, we totally need some more of those.”
The new Goodwill doesn’t have a huge furniture or home wear section but I did spy this credenza for $50. It was in pretty rough shape and wasn’t super design exciting, so I passed on it even though I’ve been on the hunt for a credenza for the master bedroom.
I did pick up some ceramic pieces…of course…
I loved the graphic black etched pattern on this little pitcher. I wish it was larger – I’d totally use it too water my thirsty house plants.
I also grabbed this vintage Heath serving bowl and platter set. It’s pretty large and in fairly decent shape. Great for chips…or stew…or soup? Good for something…
