Thank you ShelterPop for the mention of this post in your latest Link Love ! I love to see what everyone else is up to. For example, the drawers above from SchubLaden are my new favorites! I might never have found them.

Looking for my staple gun, Alice
For anyone in VA, Black Dog Salvage is your hometown salvage yard. For me, it's just another excuse to stare at library ladders I will never have. Also, the horse? If I had a spare pile of cash I might consider it, since he is quite fantastic. Have you ever watched the movie Black Dog? It is hard to pass on a movie with a cast including Patric Swayze, Meatloaf, and Randy Travis.
Stay safe - stay moving, Alice
Lot 1160, estimated value $75-$150. I love you.
Visit the Dargate website for all kinds of auction items. There is really no sofa better than this one. Ever. Until some child spills juicy juice on it, or the dog pees. Then, I am sure another sofa might be more appealing.
Oh to have the luxury of brilliant flocked wallpaper hidden away in some hallway or alcove. The wallpaper we have was in a free pile, and we only have one hallway, so I am up the creek on this one.
Fancy fabric no one can afford
In summary, all I want is a blue room. A blue velvet room. I don't want a video of someone walking through my house showing up on my doorstep though.
Watching cartoons, Alice
Does the dummy come with the chair? Is he supposed to help sell the chair? Why is he there?
Imagining what he might be hiding, Alice
Look at this fine free sofa.It is old {which I love}, and so very sleek for its age. I also think that it's little wings are adorable. If it were grey wool, or honey leather, I would be heading to south King County right now. As it is, one of you should go snag it, because it is very pretty and lonely.
Sick of India hicks, Alice
As you can tell, I love creepy old leather furniture. 
I also love tufting. This chair is a mere $75, and a perfect addition to your gothic modern decor.
Looking for quarters in the sofa, Alice
If this love-seat seems familiar, it is. I found it on craigslist a few days ago, and it ended up in my living room. This is a little bit of a problem, since I also just picked up that antique hide-a-bed, and have no place to put them. I was hoping to have a TV room to put them in, but I guess that means I need to actually prepare the TV room first, then get furniture.
I usually spend weeks planning out projects like this, filling in notebooks with sketches and doodles, measurements and prices. After I have worked out all the kinks in my head, the project moves forward. Except for the times that I just start tearing out a wall or window with no plan at all. Thats different, its called being adventurous. In this case, its called impulsive craigslisting, and we are paying the price with couches everywhere.
My advice? Be impulsive with lamps and pillows. Not large furniture.
