Thrift Haul: Score! Free and $1.00 Mid Cenutry Modern Furniture!

Monday, July 2, 2012

The curbsides and flea markets were kind to me the past couple of weeks! The nightstand (side table?) above was a mere $1.00 and has a beautiful mod shape! There's a lot of damage on the faux wood laminate, but it'll be a fun project. What do you think, should I paint it, decoupage it, or cover it with more faux wood laminate?

The mod side table wasn't my only dream find- I've always wanted a little red wagon like this. I finally found one for the right price. I'm going to sell this one for $12, but I'm tempted to keep it for retail or home display.

Practical items like this small wooden shelf are great to sell in my antique store booths. I'm going to work on this one. Expect a before/after soon!

I always have pretty good luck with these antique-style brass desk lamps as well. This one is for sale for $12.00. I can't wait to put it in the antique store booth today!

I was thrilled to uncover this adorable little sailor girl and kitten vintage art prints. I love these stacked in a book shelf or hung on the wall. I'm letting these go for $15.00 for the pair today as a daily deal. Simply e-mail me if interested.

This is my free mod furniture find! I luckily happened to be riding with my friend in his truck when this beauty appeared on a neighbor's trash pile. It definitely needs some TLC, but it has good bones. Definitely worth scooping up as a project. If you're local and you're interested in the nightstand or the coffee table simply drop me a line!

This large fish bowl will be used for retail display. The whale sticker is cute, but I'm peeling it off so customers can see my merchandise within unhindered.

Oh, and I even got to satisfy my boat fetish with this lovely boat plaque. I can almost smell the fresh, salty air and feel the sea breeze. Lovely!

The silly Yuko cat still loves to play in my boxes for merchandise! Remember, everything I post in these haul posts is for sale. Simply e-mail if you see anything you like :) I also host daily deals with the lowest possible prices on Facebook and Twitter.

So Do Tell: What did you find this weekend?

I found my on CL for $200 two years ago when I was in desperate need of a couch: http://www.thriftcore.com/2010/07/my-first-scandinavian-mid-century.html

Keep hunting, you'll find one eventually!

I was thinking the same thing with the wood laminate, might punch it up a bit with some color or different textures of laminate, but I kind of want to keep it classic.

Sorry the flood got the best of your girl, kind of makes me want to frame my favorite pieces... ;p

Thanks on the Vegas sign, it's my favorite Vegas souvenir :) I should actually use it to save up for my trip back to that place!

I have thought of decoupaging the top with transformer's comic book pages and pouring resin over it, hmm...And yes, good thing I was in my friend's truck! My wouldn't really accommodate it!

Indeed, it'll probably go quick in front of the antique stores even with its damage.

You know I looove my toys ;) Might do a similar set up when I'm finally ready to sell my toys.
