My daughter and I were in a shop recently. She was amazed at how cheap beautiful vintage furniture was going for and that was antique shop prices! I told her next time she needed some furniture, ditch Ikea and try some resell stores. Less expensive, better quality and best of all it’s already assembled! You have excellent taste, sir. Thanks for another glimpse into your cosy home.

Years from now people will be talking about the different styles used in different time periods and they'll say the 2000's were the Ikea period.😅 Thank goodness for us that still use antiques.

Looks great! You can put books and snacks in those drawers. Or a CD player with 30's music to lull you to sleep. 😊 That's a great lamp too. I hauled a bed like that home from an auction in a 1977 Impala. You could live in a 77 trunk they are so big. lol Also hauled a formica table and a trunks full from curb diving... Oh the good ol days. :-)
@tamarrajames359016 күн бұрын
Both tables are lovely Scott, but I think the second one picks up the bed colour better than the first, and two drawers are a definite bonus. The lamp is is a nice touch, and the clock is perfect at the bedside. That bed cover is sublime, and appears in excellent condition. Thanks for sharing, and now you can repair the marble top table leg like new.🖤🇨🇦

Thank you Scott! I have an antique table that needs that treatment! I’m so glad to find out I don’t have to refinish the top just for a few scratches. I’ve been using the scratch cover, but I didn’t know to use the 0000 steel wool. I love this video and would be interested in seeing other ways to take care of old furniture. I have a collection of old things from Goodwill and other thrift stores. I can’t imagine having all brand new furniture. It would not make me happy. Love seeing your pretty 1925 bungalow.❤

Hi Scott, I can't believe i have a marble top table similar to yours in my bedroom as well. Thankfully it's not on my side of the bed! I do like the new one and I'm sure you will appreciate the drawer space. Because I'm a nurse, I picked up on some "breathlessness" coming from you? Remember, fluids and rest and hope you take care!

The empire work table is a great piece, and looks perfect next to your bed. I'm envious, since I have an empire dresser, and it would be perfect in my room! I think a warm, tannish green would be nice for your room. I've used a Sherwin-Williams color, Urban Jungle (forgive the name), neutral but interesting, and it looks great with mahogany furniture and gilt or black frames (my walls are covered with antique prints). My two cents worth. Always fun to watch you decorating!

Scott, As much as I like Eastlake style furniture, that Empire style piece really compliments your bed frame nicely. It's a bit more 'masculine/angular' and more 'you'. I love it! Also, that 1940's bed coverlet is EVERYTHING!

I like that table a lot. It looks better in that space than the marble topped table. I am going to try that Old English scratch cover job on my grandfather's desk that his father made for him! It has to be well over 100 years old. Mom had it and I ended up with it after she passed.

Thank you for my daily lesson. I do enjoy learning about stuff from you. I have my Grandmother's marble top table like that, it was probably her mother's. And I have my Great Aunt's 1940s bed frame that looks a lot like the corner of the one you showed us. My head board needs to be oiled or waxed or something is looks dry but i'm affraid what ever I do will get on the pillow cases. What do you suggest?
