Sunday Afternoon Thrifty Browsing.

Today was quite the productive day for us. After selling these bedside tables to a better home where they could finally fit in, we immediately went out and about to our favorite thrift/antique stores to find replacements ones to fit our style. We were HIGHLY successful- but I'll post pictures of them tomorrow, when there's some daylight so you can get the full effect. Tonight I wanted to share some instagram pics of amazing pieces we wish we could've brought home with us. Ah, the joys of furnishing on a budget. Hope everyone...

Vintage French Provincial Two-Tier End Table - FOR SALE

This piece is another that we picked up before we decided we were going to turn our apartment into a mid-century modern time warp, not a vintage French-provincial cottage.

This desk is absolutely perfect, with warm cherry-brown wood, a removable glass top, metal feet, and...it's really large. Too large, turns out, for our apartment. Which is why I'm the one posting this instead of Trevor -- he's still too heartbroken that...

Eastern-Inspired Bamboo Broyhill Bedside/End Tables - Sold!

Update: These have sold! Thanks Susan, we hope you love them! About two months ago, we bought this pair of Broyhill tables to be our bedside tables for our future apartment. Once we actually moved in, however, we decided a mid-century modern look would better suit our modern, loft style apartment. Oh well -- our indecision is your gain! Pin It We'd love to find these end tables a new home, and get over our guilt for abandoning them so quickly. The pair are for sale for $120 -- $60 each. They look great as is, or could be painted...
