My family and neighbors think that I am a complete loon for stopping off on the side of the road or driving by a dumpster to pick up a piece of furniture. They also think I've completely lost my mind because I shop a very well-known classified website (...the list) and will go to a stranger's home to shop!
Personally, I just don't see the problem.
Grant you, visiting a stranger's place or having them come to your home can be unsafe, but I like to believe I use caution like trying to always bring someone with me (I'm thinking my 95 lb. friend might not be able to strong arm an assailant, but her little fingers sure can dial 911!). I also like to believe that there are good people in the world AND they do sell on Cr...list!
Take a look at the little end tables that I found online for $20 each. I was able to snag a pair of them! These tables are Tell City solid Maple tables. I am quite sure that had the seller known what little gems she had hiding in the rough, she would have opted to keep them!
This just goes to show you that when you re-imagine you can take something old and recreate into something new that you will enjoy! These tables will have a new home in my living room and will be much appreciated!
