Craigin'

I was hoping January would bring with it all sorts of treasures to the Craig...sadly, I was mistaken.
There are, however, a handful of goodies to be had.

The first being this amazing bamboo bed. I was hesitant to include it because I wasn't sure anyone would see the potential. Then, last night, I was reading last month's Southern Living (sometimes I get a little behind in the mag department) and what did I spy but an amazing bamboo bed all gussied up with a splash of Regency glamour. For $50 this really could be incredible...


(sorry about the quality, I had to scan it)


A big brass boat. What occasional table doesn't need this?! It's slightly Z Gallerie but for a {negotiable} hundred bones I think it has the potential to be pretty fabulous. Annnnd to top it off, I'm pretty convinced it's a Curtis Jere skeleton sculpture (think midcentury here) which are currently listed on eBay for a whopping $1,500. Go getcha some.


Next. A George Nelson Bubble Lamp. These retail at DWR for around $500. This one is $250...


 (in a room...mmm Wishbone chairs)


Brass bamboo bar cart. In South County. For $30. If I had a place for this it would be mine.


I considered this lucite chandy for Finny's room but the thought of leaving it behind when we move made me sad. Imagine this in a dining room with de Gournay paper...I kind of love it. $250.


Oh, did I mention that I'm pretty sure it's the same exact chandy as this one one being sold on 1st Dibs for $800? It's true.


Sometimes Craigslist makes my stomach hurt...why are people getting rid of this stuff?!

Another Kicker. This guy is getting rid of a set of Thonet chairs. He's selling FOUR of them for $60. Not $60 a piece but for all FOUR. You know how much you could make on eBay if you resold these?!


 I'm not sure this person even knows what they have...the listing is for the larger 9-drawer dresser from the Henry Link Bali Hai collection (1970s). I searched {and searched} for these dressers before finding my own last year. This one is in perfect condition {comes with the mirror} and yours for only $150.


 Leave it as is or turn it into something fabulous...


And lastly, this. Amazing in every way. I only wish I had a place for it...
