I Spy: Industrial Letters, Mag Shelving

It's been FAR too long since I last went on a treasure-hunting adventure, so when I had the chance, I decided to celebrate by going to three new-to-me spots. First up, I traveled up I-64 west to Everything Vintage Co. in Toano. The store is an incredible, well-curated selection of primitive and industrial antiques, along with custom-made furniture and vintage clothes. I was seriously blown away by the selection and made a mental note to return if I someday have enough room and money for a custom dining table.

 I saw industrial letters, such as this selection from an Amoco sign...

I seriously coveted this Shenandoah Valley farm table (my dream!!), which was $975 (I think).

The store was beautiful!

This mid-century dresser, for $275. (Do you spy me in this shot?)

Incredible old signs...amazing objet d'art. I imagine it topping a pile of books on a circular entry table. $145.

 Next, I ventured over to the Williamsburg Habitat for Humanity ReStore, which opened last year. Williamsburg is a classy town, so the folks donating are giving away nice and interesting stuff. They had a boatload of hotel furniture that was recently unloaded, along with this super unique $20 art piece, with a really neat frame. How gorgeous would it be in a blue-and-white themed room?

 I also loved this screen door...couldn't find a price though. If I had a cute little cottage, I would be all about this.

 If I had a truck, I so would have grabbed this bad boy. $35 for the perfect stand for magazines/newspapers/books, what have you. God, the more I think about it, the more I want it.

After the ReStore, I paid a visit to The Vintage Rabbit, a great consignment shop. If you're not familiar with furniture consignment stores, they basically set a price, and it goes down every month for three months. They had some gorgeous pieces, like this rust-colored herringbone wingback, which is currently $325.

 I can picture this $400 white chesterfield with beautiful pillows made of this fabric.

 On the one hand, this classic mid-century sofa could use a more neutral upholstery job. On the other hand, I feel like you could work a color scheme around it and make its unique shade work to your advantage. It was $275.

I love the shape of this chinoiserie side table...I can imagine it looking amazing with high gloss white or red paint. $47, I think.

They had two of these upholstered chairs. I sorta loved the colors in the fabric, and the welt around the legs. Like the green couch, I feel like these could pop in a neutral living room and the fabric could actually work with more modern elements to balance it out.

It was good to get out antiquing again! I, of course, picked up a couple silhouettes for the collection...but if I could have, I would've taken a lot more home!
