Secondhand Mod

The professor visited the university's surplus property sale this morning.

On this day it seems he has found a walnut mod'ish club chair for ten dollars.

This news caused me take a mental inventory of all the secondhand, mod'ish furniture in our house...

Ninety-nine percent of it, to be exact, is of the "rescued" variety. Not bad.

I think we may have acquired a "new" chair today... upholstered in green wool.

Well, at least the color will suit the holiday season!

{Pictured... Lengthening shadows and the black fiberglass Eames chair in our living room. The acquisition of this particular chair involved a dumpster and my furniture-loving husband.}

And there you have it... some not-so-glamorous glimpses of our {secondhand} mod'ish life.
