Lol yeh I could use a few if they could figure things out for me. Really one of the most fascinating experiences I’ve ever had with the natural...
[ Example at the Restore: "Busted up Table Saw"- $300. Home Depot equivalent- $350. Unless an item is very obscure or niche, the internet makes...
Nate is finding Tiffany and you’re finding Lalique? I think Restoration Hardware is as close to a luxury brand as I’ve found at thrift.
I could see that. Would it be typical for an art student to do a run of 80 prints? I have no idea if that would fit a norm. For a minute I was...
Oh I actually didn’t know that! I’ll have to investigate the actual critter. So used to only seeing their shell, or depictions of their shell....
Ah yeh I guess that’s it. Pretty sure that floated across my mind at some point and then kept floating I guess. :) Thanks
First thought octopus/cephalopod maybe? Then unfurling plant like a fern or something? Really I’m just not sure though. What do y’all think?...

Interesting. Didn’t know that. Were small fireplaces pretty common in smaller rooms? I’ll have to assume so but have limited time spent in...
I just left it behind for a week but I’ll look when I get back. To my eye it looked cast but I didn’t examine it ultra close. I’ve only had one...
Anyone know what this was for? Bottom inch or two was left unpainted. That makes me assume that part may have been hidden for some reason. I see...
1921 is the most common and least valuable Morgan so that lends to the likelihood of it being used like this. It’s likely not damaged too bad I...
I’ve been using your technique actually. Not sure why I neglected to mention it.
Agreed on shipwreck frame. Very nice frame but it’s not a great match for the painting IMO. Oh well! Maybe a buyer will like the match.
You can get silver acid for under $10. The trick is learning to read it. This probably wouldn’t be exactly sterling or .999 so it might be hard to...
I would go very high on the price!!! Workwear stuff is super valuable usually. I’ve seen Carhartt re-pop stuff but this clearly doesn’t look like...
