Bay Area Craigslist Wishlist: November 11

As we near the weekend, there is a ton of great (and affordable) stuff popping up on Craigslist.  Maybe people are cleaning out their homes for the holidays?   Here are some of the things I'd pick up if I had the extra storage space (or rooms to fill!)

A great pair of mid-century chairs that look like they're in great condition for $150.  I especially love the nailhead trim.  These would be great to round out the seating in a living room.

An awesome "Mad Men" era desk and chair for just $120.  This is a little beat up, but the shape is classic and I love the hardware detailing.

Do you see the brass caps on the legs?  I'd paint this either a glossy black or red-orange (like below) to make the hardware and leg detail pop.

 You can never have too many mirrors in a house. (They both brighten up a space, and make it feel bigger)  The convex shape of this one makes it especially cool and the oval shape kind of reminds me of snow white.   You could also turn it on it's side to fit a wider  space in the wall.

A white sofa isn't for everyone, but at just $200  you could just replace this one after it gets stained in a few years.

 I'm definitely on a mid-century kick this week.  I'm not sure what the original intetion was for this Henredon piece, but I think it would make an awesome bar or sideboard in a city apartment. (They're asking $180)

Happy Hunting!
