I am on a lucky streak with finding furniture these days! Last Saturday, I picked up a gorgeous & buttery soft yellow leather chair outside of a shop just a few blocks from where I live. (My favorite color too!) And last night, I snapped up a funky brown lamp just a block from my apartment.
I'm completely content with gently used furniture (I love antiques) but I know a few of my friends are squeamish at the thought. What's your opinion on thrifting? Over the years, I've collected a few "street treasures"-- mostly framed screen prints -- from the West Village and Soho, and I have really grown fond of them.
oho so this is the lamp you were talking about on the phone! sweeeeet. it doesn't even look that used?

Oh I love both your finds!! That brown lamp looks like it came from a west elm or crate and barrel catalogue...and you got it for free! I love finding things like that....that's why I love summer garage sales :)
ReplyDeleteNo way, you found both of those things in the street?! Lucky girl, indeed!
