I tossed it on there one day...liked the look...tucked it in a little neater and never looked back.<br /><br />Sue - This sits across from the Thayer Cogging in the living room. There used to be a blue vinyl love seat size sofa across from it. That got traded off for a console stereo that took it's place in the living room. That found a new home a few days ago and in came the Thayer Coggin! It's a little like musical chairs around here sometimes.<br /><br />Rhan - Sometimes the story is as good as the piece!Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-55634925008930726942011-02-03T12:47:17.813-06:002011-02-03T12:47:17.813-06:00Oh me oh my, that is gorgeous!

You are beginning to remind me of Morgan at The Brick House, the way she changes furniture around in her den.

I have always liked the sleek design of gondola sofas. A friend of mine gave me a green Adrian Pearsall sofa body. The frame was destroyed when the sofa blew off of his trailer. :( :( I will have to put my creative and wood working skills into gear to make a new base.Krazy4Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00759139762164230288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-46481642203974140962011-02-03T01:37:11.767-06:002011-02-03T01:37:11.767-06:00Dana - Ugh, I feel ya about the ice.

When I went to pay for it I realized I had taken the big wad of cash out of my pocket while back at home (always have cash on hand, you just never know when a great deal will present itself). Dag, I only had $12. Not enough. They said they'd hold it all until Monday. I called Monday to see if they had indeed held it...and to see if they were even open! They still had it all for me but suggested I wait for the weather to break. I haven't had a chance to go get it yet because of the weather! I hope it's all still there. Walter Dorwin Teague designed dinnerware, Dorothy Thorpe glassware and a really cool lamp table! That's right, <i>another table</i>.Mr. Modtomichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804031065414619749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6668802457367853649.post-33779811048176253372011-02-03T01:25:01.093-06:002011-02-03T01:25:01.093-06:00What a steal at $125!

I think we're about to pick up a china cabinet with cane trim on it too...if all this ice will melt and we can get to the woman's house.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.com
