Most of the store overwhelmed me with all of the random stuff, but my eyes were on the look out for fun furniture finds and I was lucky enough to find some.
We got there at 10 minutes til 6 and the store closed at 6--so needless to say, this was a super quick trip. Don't worry though...I still had time to take a few pics of my favorites that I spotted in 10 minutes time.
All of the following chairs cost less than $50 each! I really like them all and am trying to resist the urge to return to buy one of them!
Also, this secretary had a red 'sold' sticker on it, but it reminded me so much of the Eddie Ross {from Bravo's Top Design} secretary he re-did! I probably wouldn't have given it a second glance unless I had seen the beautiful end result Eddie produced!My find today!
Eddie's find!
Eddie's fabulous secretary makeover!
We plan on going "antiquing" more---David actually likes this type of shopping because he's obsessed with books and loves to look through old ones. Score one for me : ) !

The secretaries are super similar! They have the exact same window design!

Love the secretary, too - we went to a rummage sale last weekend and there was a lovely secretary there as well. I was just trying to figure out where to put it.
Those chairs are all lovely - I really liked the second one.
I added you to my googlereader not too long ago, I didn't realize you were from around Fairview. I lived in Edwardsville while I was going to school and worked in Fairview Heights for a while. Small world.
I like the middle chair, love the wood work details. the cover is wild. jane
Wow, I love the look of the re-done secretary! The before and afters really make me want to go find an old secretary that I can re-do!
I'm dying for the second chair. It would look fantastic in my living room!
Hey, it's a twin! God finds, girl!
Fabulous finds, J! Amazing how pieces come full circle don't they? All cleaned up, these pieces would go for a lot of $ at RH or PB or ZGallerie!
I must say your H is so sweet to go antiquing, too. Mine would not make it into the car =)
