<p>[QUOTE="Mr S, post: 10513817, member: 92076"]Welp. I've done it yet again. Thrifted my third fugitti studio cherub lamp. This one was $14.99. a little bit of chipping at the base but seems like it'll be an easy repair. All in all $47 deep into approximately $1500 worth of lamps</p><p>Other finds include a poorly repaired 1876 EJD bodley sugar/trinket? bowl for $6, a who-knows-how-old brass/bronze finish floral accented vanity mirror (which one sold for $245 3 years ago online claiming it was circa 1890, but I got this one for $8 and I don't care how old it is ) and a super cool handled cobalt tray for $3.

Mr S..... what on earth do you do with all this junk you're buying while your wife is still on the waiting list for a booth????</p><p>Well the answer is the hallway of mirrors and the unwalkable room of thrift and estate finds</p><p>[ATTACH=full]528607[/ATTACH]excuse the mess. Were still getting moved in after downsizing and losing 700 square feet of storage . But this was our only option as we didn't want to risk our last place being 4' underwater and losing everything. The joy of shady landlords not disclosing the property history of the past 10 years and the three times it's been underwater <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
