Dr Jekyll and Mrs Hyde.

Had the opportunity to purchase a bunch of inventory the last few days.  If you have been watching my social media, you know it’s not my typical stuff.  First off, the former owner is still alive at 97 and a retired Doctor and finally moving out of his home.  It was jam packed with fine furnishings and collectibles. I knabbed some great furniture in a Victorian or French Provincial Reproduction style.  Most items were purchased new in the late 60s/early 70s as I can tell.  That said, things are clean and well taken care of.  I already have been processing and listing things so stay tuned to my shops.  I have been adding shipping/delivery into my pricing on Etsy as they are pushing for that. Most furniture sellers do not list shipping but they we get tossed into the Etsy free shipping stuff and it causes some confusion.  I am hedging for shipping in items that need a shipper or greyhound.  Please reach out at any point and I can adjust that number as we research it based on your location.  Want to see what I have?  💕🤗

Your choice! Two lovely 70s Reproduction French Provincial Victorian Heart Back accent chairs! The perfect throne for your wedding, shower, photo shoot or Quinceanera party!  Structurally great! Foam soft and strapping supports sturdy.  See listings for other condition details.  

16” square tufted deep red velvet bench pair. Hollywood regency, French Provincial, shabby chic, rococo or maximalism fitting. Totally adorable.

SOLD Daystrom chrome and walnut arm chair. Love it! Some vinyl issues. Great post modern style!

Gorgeous Lane cedar chest is in amazing condition!

Love this chest with hidden secretary! It, too is in fantastic condition.

It features a flip up top, pull out desk and shelf in the lower cabinet. Beautiful original painted finish.

Amazing authentic Chinese jewelry cabinet.  In perfect condition with lock and key.  

Italian fencing foils. You never know when you will want to challenge someone to a duel. That Chinese rug is in my freezer at the moment. Freezing destroys any moth activity including eggs. I do not want them in my home. A few days in the freezer and no chance of them hitching a ride. No visual sign of moth activity!

The last part of my buy is medical stuff.  Lots of weird stuff.  Yea for that!  I have tool kits, bottles, a scale, vintage sun lamp and so many cool things.  Thinking i will hammer through them and put in my eBay shop. Stay tuned as I will get to that stuff after I get all the furniture listed.  As always, reach out if you need help.  I have adjusted some of my Etsy furniture to include shipping costs as they are pushing everyone to free shipping. If price looks high, read the fine print and this is probably why. I will follow with some preview pics.  I will be working through this stuff in the coming weeks. ✌️ Have a great week!  Malissa

Hans Wegner in the house, holiday shop in the retail space.

I have been slacking on holiday updates and I apologize! To make it up to you, I am keeping my 20% off sale in my retail space going for now.  Head to Fleetwood Antique Mall and shop the MadModWorldVintage pop up 10-6 WED-SUN. Everything on sale EXCEPT the Broyhill dining set which is already hundred under my online price and half of retail in my markets.  I got this cheap and I am selling it cheap! If you need a handsome walnut set, you can pair this with any of the Broyhill Premier lines. The Saga credenza is sold. Do not miss out on this amazing set! All new upholstery too! You haul it priced. The mall staff will help load.  

Also no additional mark down on my NEW stocking stuffer deals from Primitives by Kathy.  Priced $6 ea or 2 for $10, I have box signs, trinket trays and other Smalls with motivational sayings for all your giftees! Office gifts, bus drivers and more.  Priced under wholesale! They will be out all season so grab them while they last. 

New and ready to gift! $6 ea, 2 for $10, mix and match.

Kitschy Christmas items, blow mold candle sticks, flocked deer, bottle brush and ceramic trees and pop corn decorations! Everything you need to celebrate a retro Christmas! 💕🙌🏻 

Now that the holiday season is swinging, come visit and shop small for your gifts and decor!  Open WED-SUN 10-6.  On Route 222 near Moselem Springs just south of Kutztown.  

New RESTORATIONS:  I just ordered fabric for the following restorations.  I will be proceeding with the work as my budget allows. My AS IS pricing is no longer active ONCE THE WORK STARTS.  I will run the numbers after I talk to the upholsterer, but I did score the fabric for an amazing price!  I work hard to get fabric cheap and keep my expenses low.  

This piece just needs covers for the existing cushions.  I think the work will be pretty reasonable. I picked this awesome palm print perfect for a Florida room or tiki lounge, just as this piece needs to be!  Estimated completed price $600-800.

I just picked this fabulous pair up last weekend. France and Son Danish teak arm chairs with a beautiful profile.  Design by Sigvard Bernadotte and sold by John Stuart Inc. All metal tags are present.  These will be getting a full rebuild. New strapping, foam and upholstery. I am buying both of the above colors and deciding when they get here.  If you love them, you can choose.  💕 These are high end Danish, collectible and sexy as hell.  Off the cuff, finished price will probably be $1500+/- for the pair.  One choice is more cream, the other is oatmeal.  I think they will both compliment the warm teak wood beautifully! 

Another view. Those swoopy arms though!  The wood is excellent and look at the joinery on the arms! Just need to ditch the upholstery and rebuild the structures.   

The main event! So you remember I came home with the Ry Mobler Wall unit and Murphy bed in September.  I quickly proved it was indeed a Hans Wegner design. 🤘🏼💕 Then decided we would keep it for my lucky son.  We finally got around to swapping his room out!  Step one: Trent disassembled his IKEA bed. 

step 2 lots of Danish Oil to bring the old dry teak back to life.

Step 3 lots of heavy lifting.  We disassembled the bed from the cabinet which made it a lot better to get up our flight of stairs in the foyer.  It’s a bilevel so tight for turns. 

We made Trent help! He did a fine job taking apart his old bed too.

looks like a great place to sleep and study!

It’s not home until your Pooh bears move in! 

This definitely is part of my retirement plan. 😜👌 It will surely be worth more in 20-30 years! 😂 Thanks Hans, she’s a beauty!!!!!

***i am cranking out orders right now and will be deliving a dining set to the Boston area this Sunday.  If you need something I can fit and want a New England meet, reach out.  I might be able to save you shipping and make your vintage dreams come true!   

Thanks for reading and wil check in again soon! Back to work!   I did pass my HR BLOCK class and waiting to see if I can get hired for some tax season hours!  My unemployment is almost kicked. 😟
