The original design was very…read moreprecarious and when I took it apart, I found the previous owner had really crammed any and everything they could to get this lamp upright and working. They had cut the bottom open crudely with a soldering iron and left it open and jagged. The lamp was always crooked, wobbling, tilted, and never screwed tight so I thought I would definitely improve it after rewiring it but- I could not figure out how to put it back together and so it sat in pieces, my beautiful lamp, in the back of my car for years. I wish I had taken pictures of it before I brought it to Pat Eggings in a bucket. Just so you could see the stark comparison of my sad lamp reduced to nuts, bolts, vintage brown glass globes, bronze/brass pillars, to this sturdy, solid and completely restored piece of art. He even put a perfectly cut slab of masonite on the bottom to safely close the jagged opening that had been carved on the bottom. The price was very reasonable and I will happily come to them with all my lamp repair needs! Of course it's also a great place to shop for one of a kind antiques and collectibles. Thank you so much!

Senior Thrift in Freeland is more than just a place to find a good deal--it's a must-see spot on…read moreWhidbey Island. What you buy here helps fund key services like Meals on Wheels for local seniors and their caregivers through an organization called Island Senior Resources (ISR). The store is huge, taking up two floors, and it's a required stop for anyone visiting or living on South Whidbey. Unlike many big thrift stores that feel messy, Senior Thrift is exceptionally clean and neat. It's set up more like a high-end consignment shop than a typical warehouse. Everything is clearly labeled, and the items are usually in great shape, showing the high quality of donations, they receive. The aisles are wide, the displays are attractive, and browsing is a relaxing, fun experience. The store is packed with a huge variety of items in almost every category: * Clothes: You'll find high-quality, gently used clothes for men and women, often with designer brands mixed in, especially in their special "Pick of the Litter" area. Everything is sorted well, making it easy to find what you want. * Home Goods & Decor: This is the store's strong point. The two floors allow for a massive selection of furniture, dishes, small kitchen appliances, and unique decorations. A fun highlight is the dedicated Christmas Room, which is open year-round for holiday shoppers. * Books & Media: They have a good selection of books and media. Honestly, I REALLY come for the books. I could spend hours in the stacks searching for rare and vintage book on subject of interest to me as well as contemporary murder mysteries that I enjoy reading. While the prices are generally fair and reasonable for the quality (especially since your purchase is a donation), occasionally a large or antique item might seem a bit expensive. I recently found a large, chunky bracelet with the 12 signs of the zodiac carved into it for $400 and a beautiful Hamsa Hand for $75.00! But overall, you get excellent value for your money. The best part about shopping here is the mission. Every dollar supports Island Senior Resources, funding important services like ride programs for medical appointments, food delivery, and support for those caring for an older adult. The staff, mostly kind and knowledgeable volunteers, are extremely friendly and make the store a cheerful place to visit. Senior Thrift in Freeland is easily one of the best thrift stores on Whidbey Island. It wins because it has a great selection of goods, keeps everything perfectly organized, and directly supports a crucial local cause. If you want a fun shopping trip where your money truly helps the community, head straight to Senior Thrift. You're guaranteed to find a treasure and feel great about supporting local seniors

There simply were too many interesting things. I am certain I could have spent hours inside and still not taken in everything. The back rooms had what I look at as apothecary chest- tons of little drawers, if you can picture it. Except they had several of them and every drawer was filled with different jewelry findings! Beads, clasps, bails- you name it. At the front of the store were a bunch of felt hats that were also incredible. We were greeted when we entered and checked on a couple of times- I really enjoyed this shop. I was very, very tempted to buy myself one of their gorgeous semi-precious gemstone necklaces.

I like to put old things in harmony with the present era. It may be good to find something unique and retro. However, some of them are not antique, but they all match the image of the store.

My husband was convinced that there was no way to find a replacement .After a month of internet searches and inquiries, we were convinced we would never find a matching replacement. One day I emailed Vintage Hardware. I exchanged emails with Victoria who was super quick and easy to reach via email and subsequently on phone. She asked for numerous photos of the shade against bright light. Within 48-72 hours, she had found an EXACT match in their stock. I was concerned that it might not match the amber shading or the size but Victoria referred to their antique expert , who said he recognized the style and it was exclusive to a certain chandelier only. We received it in perfect condition in two days after that. We are thrilled...!!! My husband cant believe I pulled it off ( he was ready to buy a new chandelier).
