I am in Northern VA and if that store is close, I want to go, haha. I think I spotted a few things that have my interest.

T...My Salvation Army is terrible compared to yours. They talk a big game about not accepting broken or stained furniture, but from their inventory they don't stick to that. Plus they charge more than retail. Last time I was in there they had a nasty old stained couch for $500, no joke. <br /><br />I love all the pieces you linked, but I've been looking for a chest for my mom (she wants one to use as a coffee table) so I think I'd go with that one. Recover the top with some vinyl, oilcloth, or indoor/outdoor fabric covered with clear vinyl. Maybe a fun faux ostrich fabric. I'd paint the bottom, I'd want a bright color but that's not quite her style, so maybe a distressed antique white. She has dogs that will distress it for her so it might as well start out that way!Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17897718251146316249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4550079205854272848.post-28122727431698625622012-02-01T11:36:54.742-05:002012-02-01T11:36:54.742-05:00Wow!
