Last Evening The Girlfriend And I Presented Our Annual Nightmare Before Christmas Party And My Good Friend Illuminate (Who We Haven't Seen In A While) Came To Hang With Us. Then Today She Texted Me Some Ridiculous Pics From A Local Goodwill. Status: Had To Share!

Yes, you are reading that tag right.  ONE THOUSAND AND FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS.  Would you pay $1,500 for ANYTHING from a goodwill?  And that is for just ONE piece of a three piece set!  ::Sigh::  This is what happens when someone gets a little bit of a lot of information.

I Been Tryin' Real Hard To Get A Load Of Smalls Out To Creve Coeur So I Gathered Up A Couple Boxes Full And Dropped Those AND The Grete Jalk Sofa In Booth 307. Took A Quick Look 'Round And Spotted Some Good Stuff In Some Other Booths Too. Status: Available.

I literally looked around for 30 seconds and stumbled across Three really cool items at The Antique Mall of Creve Coeur.  I was in a rush to get to work so I didn't have time to scour the entire mall, so there may be even more / better finds out there.  Thing is, if you like what you see...you better hurry!

Well, This Is The Last Of The Drexel Declaration Saturday Morning Estate Sale Booty. This Is Just A Simple Clean Walnut End Table By Kipp Stewart. It's Already In The Booth (#5) At The Green Shag Market. Status: Cleaned Up And Ready To Go!

There was so much more Drexel to be had at that sale but I just didn't take enough dough with me to snatch it all.  I had to leave behind a lovely Declaration dining table and I think either 4 or 6 chairs.  There was also a buffet and china cabinet, but they had some unusual hardware on them and I wasn't really sure that they too were Declaration.

More Beautiful Kipp Stewart Designed Drexel Declaration. Another Piece Brought Home From This Past Saturday's Estate Sale Visit. Status: Available At The Shag.

Yes Siree!  I've currently got plenty of fantastic Drexel Declaration looking for a new home in Booth 5 Green Shag Market.  It's nice that these pieces were in such amazingly good shape that all I had to do was knock off the dust, shoot some pics and deliver them to The Shag!

Drexel, DREXEL, DREXEL! Mr. Modtomic Somehow Managed To Get Pretty Lucky At An Offhand Estate Sale Visit This Morning. 20 Minutes After Opening And I Still Pretty Much Had The Pick Of Any Of The Good Stuff! Status: I DO Declare.

The joint was loaded with Drexel Declaration and after arriving a mere 10 minutes before opening and receiving the much coveted #62 line ticket I found that everything I might have wanted (less the Declaration coffee table / bench) was still available to be had.  What the WHAT?!

I'm FINALLY Taking (More) Advantage Of The "Airspace" Above My Booth. Today I Found An Effective Way To Hang This Trio Of Danish Modern Dining Chairs From The Rafters. Status: More To Come!

See!  Necessity IS the mother of invention!  No more room on the floor of your booth?  Go up!  I'm way behind the curve on this though.  So many of the other vendors have already done this...and done it well.  Well, I'm playing catch up now.

I still didn't have enough time to a really good job but I did get a chance to clean up the tops of these tables this afternoon.  They came out pretty nice.  Not perfect but better still.  I used Howard's Walnut Restore-A-Finish and some 0000 steel wool and it really brought out the lovely color.
