Fridays Finest Finds

Here we go yo! Awesome (at least I think so) finds on Craigslist in DC...

Campaign Style Desk $1200 (i know pricey, but this bad boy is worth every penny and i am pretty sure if found at an antique store it would be extremely expensive)

Wingback Chairs with Schumacher fabric $850/pair (these are already upholstered in a designer fabric and i think would look awesome in a shamrock green room with a baby blue modern sofa)

The chairs above remind me (i know different shape and different fabric, but the essence is the same) of the uber talented Lauren Leiss of Pure Style Home living room chairs...

Pale Blue Velvet Loveseat/Sofa $125 (looks a tad slippery, but could just be silk velvet...this is a see in person and then decide deal, but at the same time, the price is ab fab)

Antique Boudoir Settee $125 (i want this settee bad...it has recently been re-upholstered in a navy/white stripe with kelly green trim, gorgeous huh?)

The above settee made me think of this living room designed by the mother/daughter team of Good Bones, Great Pieces...


2 Wicker Chairs $50/both (simply clean lines, perfect for a sun porch...i see the cushions recovered in a fun pattern, which would be easy enough to do. just e-mail me if you need help)

Modern White Dining Chairs $75/all (great price and would match any decor, also perfect for kids)

Antique Twin Headboard $100 (it always amazes me that i can love ultra modern and very ornate at the same time)...
image 2140460620-1

Asian Antique Replica Armoire $200 (the inside is bright red and remember it does not need to be used as a tv stand, think outside of the box. i have 3 similar white ones and i use them as dressers. or how about using it as a linen closet)
image 2145467866-0

Glass Coffee and Side Table $10 (uh...the price, need i say more...maybe tone down the shiny gold with matte gold if you wish)
image 2145136262-1

Pair of Vintage Stiffel Lamps $125 (the balls are actually ostrich eggs, cool huh. change the shade to something modern like ruby tuesday's did)
image 2142970059-0

Drexel Heritage 'Tai Ming' Bedroom Suite $1150 (high price, but look what you will get! and you don't have to stencil a red dragon around your bedroom if you don't want to...i would use that stencil sparingly, because it kinda feels like march of the dragons, instead of wow cool image. honestly though theses pieces are gorgeous and so hot right now)

Chrome and Glass Coffee Table $95 (simple clean lines and would bring in a lot of light to a dark living room)
image 2142825523-1

Beautiful Modern Chrome Side Table $200 (a tad pricey, but a great side table for a small space)
image 2142000633-0

Gus Modern Sofa $950 (a beauty for sure, great color. i see it in a mans apartment with a deep rich chocolate wall and lots of zebra and chrome)
image 2140334466-0
Or the sofa above could look this hot in a room like this...
Palmer Weiss

4 Brand New West Elm Dining Chairs $100/each (these look comfy and would match most decor)

Gold Antique Gigantic Entry Mirror $400 (the piece du resistance...wow. wish i had a home big enough to handle this gorgeous piece, nice coffee table too)

Oh Lonny, how do I love thee! Below is a fantastic inspirational image for the mirror above sourced from Lonnymag...
