I was raised in an mid century modern home. Who knew that I would come to love the clean classic lines that seem to interact well with my funky eclectic style.
One day the Pirate says: I'm tired of all this bargain basement, thrift store, upcycled, found on the side of the road crap we have. (maybe he didn't say bargain basement or upcycled, but he was wearing an eye patch....no that's not true....maybe drinking whiskey at 9am? Yep definitely true)
I saw a review for this place and popped in one day.......Ohhhhhh.......Ohhhhhhh.......
yep I was in furniture store love. It's not cheap, nor is the quality.
So the Pirate is tired huh....Well I'm going to get exactly what I want then. Our affair started with several trips to view a davenport, that's what my MamaToo called hers. It needed to double as a sofa and comfortable bed for guests visiting. Davenports tend to have boxy cushions that can be removed revealing a day bed sorta thingy. I went maybe three times over several weeks. It was an investment afterall.
Katie was there from the beginning to help, no pressure...take my time...she'd send pricing quotes for different configurations and pictures, did i need a swatch sample?
I gave my orange retro couch the old heave ho and passed it on to a herb smoking musician and have never looked back.
Next came the side table a few months later
Then they had a warehouse sale and we bought a sideboard
( Ohhhhh I love that piece)
then another side table for whiskey for the pirate....
a few small gifts for friends over the years from
their in-store selection and various pop up shops they host.
Katie was my gal.....who put up with my thoughts and hesitation to invest....
never any pressure
Then I bought a new dresser (I dragged my old one onto the side of the road,
helping a man load it into his truck....hey...why I am loading it.....)
and then I bought a slim book case that I had been eyeing for months was snagged
at their showroom sale.
Of course I needed the nightstand match now....so I bought that.
and then one day i looked around and I was finished...no more to buy....no more...nope....
Over the last 3 years I have loved everyone and my darling Katie.....
AND then my gal hooked me up for a VIP sale.....
probably the best deals ever
and since dear Angelique needed a desk,
I picked up
a desk top and a single chair......and a market umbrella for future festivals and what not.
The Pirate doesn't complain anymore, but he still drinks Whiskey at 9am. He is happy with my choices and considers this mid century modern look his now......I need a bigger house or a new studio...sigh
