Wanted Wednesday
Check out this fabulous 12 drawer library card catalog cabinet for sale on Etsy. It would be perfect as a console table or sofa table (like the seller suggested). Just attach some tall legs to it or build a frame for it to sit on and poof, you have a fabulous and unique piece of furniture. I'm pretty sure I NEED THIS to finish off my basement area but alas, the price is a bit steep for me at $450. I guess I'll have to wait and find one myself, but until then, I will covet and dream about this one.
Window shopping on Etsy, Craigslist or eBay is a favorite past time of mine. Some of the stuff I find is too cool not to share, even if I'm not buying it, so I will now be using Wednesday's posts as a sort of Wanted Wednesday. These shops aren't asking me to do this, and I'm not getting anything from it other than pure enjoyment from fantasizing about having a giant house to fill with all kinds of awesome treasures.

I want it toooooo! I troll the internets for local card catalogs, but they are outrageous!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love pieces like this too! I know my old high school in Denver sold such items from their library when their old school closed and re-located. I'd check for school closing sales, as well as estate sales for these types of things. They're tricky to find! Everyone wants them right now.
ReplyDeleteStill, that price seems really high!
I was at an auction a few weeks ago where one sold for a couple hundred. Too bad I didn't have the space for it!
ReplyDeleteI do a Wanted Wednesday too! (when I remember...).
ReplyDeleteIf I ever when Lotto Max, this chest of drawers is yours.
Ooooh! Everyone NEEDS one of these!
ReplyDeleteI work in a library, and since we don't need a card catalog any more, we use it for supplies ... it's gorgeous. But it would look a lot better at my house!
