In Due Time Collectibles

While I was out, Jennifer bought a fantastic old vanity! It’s a paintable. That means, to me:
1. You can buy it cheaply enough to paint it.
2. It is not such a fine piece that someone would say “Tell me you didn’t paint over that lovely wood!!”
3. If you are willing to put in some elbow grease, steel wool and good wax, you would have a great item for soooo little money.
Come in and take a look. I can see this in a lot of settings. Vanities don’t have to mean bedroom any more. Think outside that box!
Wanna know how much? Come on down!!

Reasons Antique, Vintage, Old, Recycled…..

Number 1. Costs less, more value, really cheap if you are willing to do a little work!
2. Lots more interesting! Not stuff from the marts, not cookie cutter stuff from some chain furniture store. Unique and often, one of a kind. Look in every magazine. What is hot is what is different, creative.
3. Speaking of creative: this stuff is IT! Mix Victorian, shabby, industrial, painted and natural. Make is say YOU not “Mahogany”, or “Traditional” or any other style that can be summed up in one word!
