Then come back to see what a few months and very minimal dollars have done to the coffee table landscape.
First of all, you should know I pulled this pine coffee table (more than 3' by 4') out of the trash last spring. I can see why the old owners threw it out. A BIG empty space just begs to be filled.
Yes, that's a bowl of metal debris...
Yes, this is a jelly jar of glass debris...
And, yes, those are bottles and glass lids (aka: debris) in a wire basket...
A lot of locks are missing their keys...
And my favorite. A paperweight from a early Chicago business, J. H. Lesher & Co., Importers, Tailors' Trimmings. The total spent for all of this booty: $12.
A couch with an interesting view: PRICELESS!
I promise that next week I will share something other than debris.
Can't make the same promise about discards though. That's the nature of the antiques business. Happily going around, giving new life to discards.
