Vacation Part 2

I'm back with more thrift photos from my UK Christmas vacation.  There's quite a few blurry shots in this set, as I accidentally left my camera in HDR more while indoors, but I thought that I'd include them in anyway.  Look at all that lovely Scandinavian teak!

Mod UK Part 2

For all of those who say that St. louis has great thrift traps, take a gander at London.  They do thrifting on a whole different level!

That Scandinavian teak and other assorted Mid-Century goodness had my tongue wagging.

Great Expectations

Christmas is just around the corner (or at least that's what retailers seem to want us to believe), so you better get shoppin' and stimulate that economy.  If anyone is at a loss for ideas of what to get me, you're in luck!  I've found this teak mid-century modern boomerang desk on Craigslist.  It's basically my dream desk.




It's finished on all sides and has a built-in minibar and bookcase, all for only $1200.  A bargain, I say!  That's not asking too much, is it?

In other news, we've (hopefully) got everything ready to go with the roof.  Unfortunately, the inspection company only covered 2/3 of it.  While I would have preferred that they paid the whole thing (as it was, you know, their fault), covering the extra several hundred dollars was much easier than taking them to court.  It's a good thing they waited to get back to me until AFTER all of our great weather passed and we are now firmly in the dreary, rainy part of the year.
