Asian Inspired Lamp $25 (ok this girl is a real beaut...i adore her and she would be mine, but my lamp collection is overflowing, so much so that i had to give my friend a few lamps)

She reminds me of this handsome couple from Pieces, but her price tag is infinitely lower, this couple costs $2480...
And here is the owner of Pieces stunning bedroom with the gorgeous lamps...

Faux Bamboo Hollywood Regency Chair $75 (this is screaming pagoda red paint with black and white trellis fabric...great little side chair for a small living room)

Mid-century Teak Lamp $10 (no paint required for this extremely inexpensive bad boy...it's lovely and would look hot in a dude's den)

Chic Gold Mirror $60 (i have posted this beauty before and I am shocked to see it still around with a hugely reduced asking price)

French Provincial Sofa $225 (this is a stunning sofa and if i didn't already have a basement loaded with CL finds that i plan to redo, then this baby would be mine..hahahahaha mine i tell you!...thanks monkey for finding it)

The sofa above reminds me the red sofa I saw on The Way We Are blog (an awesome blog you have to check out...love her green dresser!!), although I do love it in red, I think I would keep the above sofa in blue, so no need for paint or reupholstery...

Yellow Dresser $120 free local delivery (free delivery, already painted, looks fantastic, hmmm...if you like painted pieces, but don't have the time, then this is for you)...

The following image can be used as inspiration for the above yellow dresser, see how lovely yellow looks with a pale grey backround...

Dresser $75 (ummm, paint anyone?)

I mentioned The Way We Are blog above and this is the awesome green dresser that you could use as inspiration for the above dresser..


Hope you all enjoyed and I would love to hear what color you all would choose for the Queen Anne twin headboards way above????

  4. Just an FYI: That white Geisha lamp is originally from Urban Outfitters. I don't know if they ever sold it WITH a shade...I bought it from them online without, for $18 plus shipping, then spent $50 on a black pagoda shade. I think for $25 that little lamp is a deal...although she is plastic and not porcelain. Once again, a whole lotta look for not much money! Love your CL finds!

  5. Love the lamp! You've got so much to choose from, I feel like there is never this much good stuff on our local Craigslist. (Although I guess living in a smaller city might have something to do with that.)
