Well, it isn't often that I can title a post such as I did tonight.Generally Craigslist is a bit of a gamble...like the lottery if you will.You spot something, send an email or make a call and a small percentage of the time, you may actually get a response.And every now and then, you may even GET something off of a seller on the site. You just never know.With prices of furniture rising and more … [Read more...]
Oh you are going to think this piece is just darling! I certainly do! I found this antique oak dresser on Craigslist and my hubby was a doll and picked it up for my on his way home from class last week. He is a keeper I tell ya. He helps me with lifting, picking up pieces, helping with difficult hardware that maxes out my patience level and so on...I just love that man. He delivered this … [Read more...]
I buy a lot of furniture to makeover for the Nest. One of my primary sources of beautiful furniture pieces is Craigslist...especially in the colder months. I CANNOT wait until yard sales begin, but until then, Craigslist is my most frequented source. I would like to talk a little tonight about being safe when it comes to purchasing pieces off of Craigslist. First of all, Craigslist is an … [Read more...]
I moved into my new place about a month ago so for me, everything is new. I have things where I like them for now, but as I told my husband, I haven't even begun to decorate yet! I am just now unpacking all my decor so my house is currently a work in progress. I guess it always will be really. Who ever says they are done decorating and changing things in the house? NO ONE EVER! I am having … [Read more...]
I am excited to share this makeover today! I had asked for your thoughts on what you would do to dress up this old beauty? She was pretty when I found her and I gasped when I went to pick her up. She was even better than I thought! The picture listed on Craigslist did her no justice. She was listed for sale at $50, bt since I always try to score a bargain, I offered her $35 for the … [Read more...]

Remember the other day when I told you about the fabulous antique mahogany sideboard I had found on Craigslist? Thanks for all your encouraging comments by the way :o)Here was the picture I showed you: I was afraid I might lose it. You see, sometimes with Craigslist, people sell things right out from under you especially if you aren't able to get there right away. I wasn't sure if the seller … [Read more...]
I found a fabulous find today...I am really stoked about it! I have been searching far and wide for a sideboard/server for my home for months now. I had a gorgeous one, but it literally slipped through my fingers before I could seal the deal. I was bummed. So I have been searching since then and TODAY I found one for sale on Craigslist! Oh happy day! I love Craigslist! Here is the pic that … [Read more...]
I now have a sense of completion with one room (nearly 2 as the bathroom is almost fully finished) in my home at this time. Well, at least until I decide it is time for a change! I feel pleased with Ana's room at this time. This room has experienced many changes throughout the years. When we first moved here 4 years ago, it originally functioned as an office/guest room. There were … [Read more...]
