Wow, I believe it, but still it’s impressive for all that.

I’m also blown away by the lack of bric-a-brac. I could SO never do that, though I appreciate the look.

Amazing haul for 72! But it can’t be done for that much in Vancouver, sadly, because we’re in a picked-over-by-hipsters zone. But if you get far enough out of town, you might find something. Nice room!

It can be done. I’ve never had a haul like that but I didn’t pick up a selig z-chair in excellent condition for $60 at a local antique shop. Just finished refinishing it. The results are posted over at http://www.vthirteen.com/blog. Sorry, I may have accidentally double posted.

I love this! it’s all about good design, not price. I love your blog, stumbled upon it accidentally and I LOVE that you’re in Chicago!! So much more relatable, especially the apartment tours. Thanks for feeding my obsession every day. : )
