(This beauty is on our wish list.)
Constantly trolling through Facebook Marketplace has paid off in a variety of ways. One is discovering a mecca of retro. Hakaar's Bazaar in Springfield, MO -- purveyors of mid-century wares. Furniture, artwork, macrame, lighting, kitchenware, decor galore. A very dangerous place to visit if you are trying to fill an entire house. On our first visit we came away with:
A blonde corner desk & chair (chair not shown) -- hard to envision anything cooler than this, but there actually were more max extreme cool stuff in the store -- we just couldn't afford them. And my husband didn't manage to take pics of them. (I bought the brass table lamp at my thrift store for $5 after my sister reminded me that we had a "table lamp" in the 1970s.)
THEEE most awesome swag light. I have been looking for a swag light to hang in the entryway. Something great for the wow factor. And this was it. Update: really wanted the light hanging in the front entry. but it was too long, and the entry was too short. so the light ended up in the den. Lastly a blonde cabinet, I can think of about three places to put it. I am not going to tell you how much we paid for these, because the price tag doesn't fit our "Mid-Century On A Budget" mantra.
