Friday Finds: Philadelphia

Today is my first Friday Finds post. I'm constantly searching craigslist and ebay for the best deals so I thought each Friday I'd feature some of the best I com e across. Each week will focus on a different city so if you'd like me to search your local site please let me know! This week we're starting with my local craigslist; Philadelphia.


First up, this gorgeous French Provincial nightstand with marble inlay. I would offer less than the $95 sale price but it has a lot of potential. I love the chicken wire look on the doors!

I love this little table, it would be great as a night stand or next to a cute chair. Obviously it needs to be painted but with a little paint and a glass knob this table has serious potential. And it's only $20!

This hutch is an absolute steal at $50! I'd paint it black and leave some of the wood exposed. I love the detail on the back of it, it almost looks like beadboard!

I'm seriously dying over this next piece. This amazing vintage dresser is only $50. If it wasn't so far from my house I might have to grab it up.

I love this bench for an entryway or mudroom. It's a little steep at $85 but it does have storage for all your hats and gloves. I think it would be beautiful painted a flat black.

Lastly these mirrors are an amazing find! I love the vintage look they have and could be an easy makeover!

looking for the perfect sunburst mirror

I've been struggling with what to put over our bed ever since we moved in over a year ago. After seeing some pictures of sunburst mirrors I've decided that's exactly what I need. Now I just need to find the perfect one. Here are some I've loved...

meeting the pioneer woman!

This past weekend, one of my favorite bloggers, the Pioneer Woman was in town for her first appearance on QVC! She had a book signing for her new cookbook at a local bookstore, so I just had to go meet her!

She was as sweet as can be signing autographs and posing for pictures!

If you have been living under a rock and haven't heard of the PW you must run over to her blog.. it's fantastic. And pick up her cookbook too!
