GORGEOUS DESK!!

Update:  Sold for $400 bones jones!!!!

I haven't staged this in my house yet, but found this desk still available for purchase on the Ethan Allen website.  I found this from the same person I got the sofa table from.  Her husband won it on an employee raffle and sold it to me for $60.  Oh .. and it retails for $1200.  This might be my best deal ever and that is saying something. http://www.ethanallen.com/product?productId=1294&categoryId=8135 visit the website to grasp its awesome beauty. 

It has never been used.  It is in MINT condition.

Sofa table extraordinaire

Sold for $125.  I am sort of crying about it honestly.  I can't believe I pretty much gave it away and that people wouldn't pay more for it!!!

I got this Ethan Allen table for $60, they retail for over $800 plus tax!  Awesome, I think yes.  I am tempted to keep it. . . I am starting the bids at $325, I am probably dreaming but it is worth a shot!  

Decor for me

I bought these cuties for me.  I paid $15 and they still had the $110 price tags on them.  $15 still seems a little high considering that I bought a bed for $20, however they are for me so I am will to splurge.   Why do I love stuff like this- unique and fabulous!  They speak to my soul. 

Wrought Iron beds

Update: Twin bed frame sold for $35 - a LOT less than I expected.  Full mattress set sold for $50. Headboard  sold for $60

These cuties were a steal.  The small bed is Pottery Barn kids and I got it for $20.

  The larger bed is a full and it included matresses, I paid $40 for it. 

Twill couch set

Update:  Sold for $325. I threw this coffee table set in because it wasn't selling anyway and I figured it could help with the sale. I paid $20 for the tables.  

This cute set is charming.  I paid $150 for it.  It is in pretty good shape and adorable. 

Pier 1 armoire

Update: Sold for $145. Sorry Dierdre! 

This cutie is fantasic.  I would gladly keep this cutie if I had a place for it.  I bought it for $25.  

leather couches

Update: Sold for $160.  The sweet guy that bought them from me wrote me an email, "Thanks for the couches, may Jesus bless you."  There are some incredibly sweet people out there, I was feeling guilty because they were so stained and I made money on the sale and he was leaping for joy because they were so much nicer than what he had.  It makes me feel very spoiled(in a bad way) and very humbled. 

I bought this set for $45 in hopes that I could buff the discoloration out. . it did't work. Oh well, for $45 I hopefully won't lose any money. 

Patio set

Update: Patio set sold for $135.  

I got this cutie for $30.

Ocotillo Coffee table set

This table set is quite fun.  It is solid white wash on the wood base, but the fabulous design is made from dried ocotillo.  For a texture-loving maniac this = awesome.  I think they are great and completely unique.

Bunk beds with dresser and desk

Update:  Sold initially for $350 before I felt like a shmuck for not giving the non-profit halfway house a better deal, so I ran out and gave the guy $20 back to go toward a mattress.  So I sold it for $330 and feel a little bit nicer. :)

These sets retail for a fortune- my old neighbor bought one almost identical for $1300.   I bought this one for $60.  I bought new boards for under the mattress and some stain - about $35 in expenses.  

The previous child owner colored all over the thing and my favorite writing "I love him so much. Can't he see that?  Why doesn't he love me?  Can't he see that I have responsibilities?"  Seriously girlfriend, if you have so many "responsibilities" you wouldn't have time to write on your BUNK BED - what are you twelve!?  All coloring is gone and it looks awesome.  

Dresser and Armoire

Update: Sold for $150

I bought this set for $50.  Although it is not really my style, it is solid wood and in excellent condition and large!!!!

Benched table

Update: Sold for $180!  

I got this little cutie for $40, then invested in stain and stripper for $25 that will be used for many other projects as well.  There is storage in the large benches and it is in pretty good shape. 

Antique vanity

Update: sold for $100

I got this beauty at a yard sale for $20.  I wish I was more educated on antiques and ebay.  I am sure I could make a lot more by selling it there, however I have it posted at $200 and got an email on it.  The drawers are all dove tailed and one of the wheels is even wooden.   We will see!

Thomasville stools

Update: Sold for $60, $2 more than I was asking.  

I bought these beauties for $20.  They are Thomasville and in perfect shape.  I have loads of refinishing projects to do this week, so I am happy to have something ready to sell. 

Patio Set

I bought this for $30 yesterday and sold it for $70 a minute ago. It was charming but in need of some spray paint. 

Sectional

Update: Soon to be sold to a friend who had asked me previously to give her a heads up if I found a sectional.  Sold for $475.  I got insane amounts of emails on this sectional. It is fantastic.

Yeah!!! I found my favorite bargain.. sectionals!  They are big, but the gaurentee big bucks!   I bought this for $200 and it is in excellent shape because they had no kids - not a crumb under the cushions!  It is la-z-boy.  

Cheap desk

Update: sold the desk and the chair for $40- I bought the chair for $3.

I bought this for $5.  

Coffee table

Update: sold for $30. I had to buy new stain for this, but there is a ton left I will be able to use for other project - stain was $8, making my profit not much.  

I got this cutie at a garage sale for $10.  I had to re-stain it and I think it turned out beautiful!

Living Room Chairs

Update: sold for my cost.  No monies made. Boo. But YEAH!! they are gone.

I bought these for $80 which is too high and they are sage green which is not neutral. They are great chairs, I am just hoping someone else will think so and I can get my money back. 

TV Stand

Update: Sold for $45

I bought this TV stand for $15. It is ikea and it is in great shape. 

computer armoire

Hutch

Update: sold for $165

I got this awesome piece for $50. It is solid wood, the drawers are felt lined and dove tailed. It had a broken glass piece- cost to fix was $11.  

Black stools

I sold these for $40 today. Not a huge gain, I am sad they did not go for more - but none of my stuff is selling this week so I am happy to have something go!

I bought these stools for $10 and had to repaint them and recover them (cost approx $12).
