Holiday Updates plus coming attractions.

Hope you all are gearing up for a great holiday!  I am still working very hard to get some projects turned over and listed before the end of the year.  I have lots of things in the queue for the winter months so keep an eye on the listings and instagram!  At anytime, feel free to email me if you would like first dibs on something that I am working on!  I would be overjoyed to have a serious buyer lined up before I am done and would gladly send you personal updates on the project. 

Also, please note that to avoid being stressed out before the holidays, if you require Greyhound shipping for your purchase, please allow 2 weeks. It generally takes about one week but I do not think either one of us want to stress out about a shipment that close to the holidays.  If you are willing me meet me within an hour of 2 of where I live (eastern PA), I would gladly accommodate you right up until the holiday!  I also would gladly add a card or make any special accommodation for you, please reach out!  I am still feverishly trying to get all orders out the door in 24 hours or less, shipping quotes to you in about the same time. 

++++COUPON+++++  I have lots of great gift items for vintage lovers of all sorts besides my awesome furnishing finds so please pop in to the etsy shop and have a look around.  I do my best to keep my prices below other etsy sellers so know you are getting a FAIR PRICE...PLUS....I have a coupon code right now for 10% off ANY PURCHASE in my shop $25+ for use now through Dec 24th midnight.  Thanks for supporting a small business this holiday season! xo

In the SHOP.....

I am currently working on a set of 7 Lane Perception dining chairs in Walnut finish.  They are very sturdy and have generous seats....good for those of us who are not petite!  Quality American made mid century furniture is being sought after and Lane in particular has really spiked in popularity.  I have just put all brand new black vinyl coverings on the seats and will be working on any structural tightening and finish issues next.  I hope to have them ready to ship in the next week or 2.  If you are in need of some walnut chairs, please give them some consideration.  They have a great Danish style without the larger cost.  This large of a set is definitely not an easy find without hunting and pecking it together.  It was actually in the same family all of these years....with 11 children.  That should tell you how well made it is!  Here is a PEEK!

NEW!!!!!!!!!!! I am now on Chairish.com! I currently have 2 listings and neither are etsy appropriate. I may continue to list things over here but I am testing the waters for now. Just listed is a FABULOUS set of 4 Vitra Tom Vac chairs designed in 1999 by Ron Arad. He is a very influential designer and artist of our current time and these chairs are not only top of the line in construction, the design is totally rad and will be great with your MCM! They are also listed right here on this website at a reduced price, so please, now that you are in the know, shop direct for best price!

NEW RETRO THEMED GIFTS!!!!!!

I added a new page to the site, EXCLUSIVE ITEMS FOR SALE.  Here you can purchase direct from me!   The Tom Vac chairs are available here as well as the awesome Franciscan Starburst kitchen towels and pillows!  All prices include your shipping.  Please send friends!  First to purchase through my web site will get a thank you gift as I have no idea what to expect and may have to work out some kinks!  I will continue to offer things here that do not fit etsy's criteria but are things I feel fit well with my shop!  Hope you enjoy!  This will also eliminate me having to send out paypal invoices to handle these transactions like I have been. 

Sorry I am quite long winded in this update but things are really heating up around here and I plan to bring in the New Year with even higher sales goals than this year!  I have already beat my sales goal for this year, which over tripled what I sold my first year out!  Thank you so much to all of my customers for that and I hope to continue to source, restore and find homes for even more worthy mid century furnishings next year!  Your support allows me to keep saving this stuff and that makes me very happy!!!!

Have a great holiday season and just remember that I am here to help you so please reach out to me at any time!  xo Malissa

Moving forward!

I am so excited to announce that I have just been approved for Retail/Trade pricing at Joybird and will be able to acquiring their fabulous upholstery fabrics for my projects at a discounted rate.  This is always exciting for someone in my position as obtaining quality materials is never cheap and this will help me keep my prices as low as possible!  I look forward to moving forward with the Hey Wake chairs!!! 

In other news, I am SERIOUSLY considering going into a small booth space.  Frankly, my furniture is taking over my home and we'd like to do some renovations in our unfinished lower level which will not get done if I store my stuff there.  SO, I am looking and researching local haunts for the perfect spot in terms of rent, fees and hopefully no required work time, not that I don't want to help, but with a job of my own and 2 very active kiddos, my time is very limited and I would rather spend my free hours working on my projects!  I will keep you all updated as I start committing and moving forward with that! 

Thanks for your support and if there is anything I can do for you, please reach out!  I am still adding things to the shop for the holiday shopping season so check in often when you are getting ready for the holidays!  Lots of nice furnishings available including a beautiful set of Stakmore folding dining chairs.  They are so sturdy, you could use them all the time or store away until family comes to visit.  You will love that they are so beautiful and comfy for a temporary seating option!  Plus, the former owner had no children and they are MINT like they just were bought!  Stakmore was made in NY and the folding mechanism used in their folding chairs were patented in the 20's or 30's!  Pretty cool!  Stakmore made it until about 2012 were they were bought by another company.  Also notice the Cosco 'kids table' as I like to call it!  Folding card table with 4 matching gate leg folding chairs.  A HOLIDAY GO TO!  Snap these up now in time for Thanksgiving and Christmas!  I will deliver if you are in the eastern PA area or message me to quote your shipping via Greyhound.  I will pack for you and get them to the bus no extra charge, you pay only exact shipping costs.  xoMalissa
