Things I stalk on Craig's List

I realized after posting yesterday about the Louis style dining chairs that I often reference my list of things I routinely stalk on Craig's List but that I've never actually shared what those items are. I mean, how can I expect you guys to alert me to these finds if I don't fill you in on what I want (*wink, wink*).

I have made some solid progress on this list this year. Not by accident either. It was one of my unofficial New Year's resolutions. Y'know, along with being a better person and stuff... :)

So here is the actual list I started around July of 2010:

1. Matching set of Jenny Lind twin beds - DONE! See them here.

2. Eero Saarinen marble topped pedestal table. My head will explode if I ever actually find this.


3. Campaign dresser - DONE! See it here. P.S. I think the faux bamboo mirror I scored at the flea market is the same as the one below right?

4. Louis style dining chairs - DONE! See them here.


5. Pair of x-base stools. I regularly see them on eBay for like $600 for the pair which is just not working for me.

6. A vintage leather chesterfield sofa. I honestly think like 75% of the images I've pinned on Pinterest are of vintage chesterfields. I once found one in a gorgeous Carolina blue leather that was worn just so. I emailed the seller only to hear the words any Craig's List-er dreads - "sorry, it just sold." I weep quietly for you still blue chesterfield...
DONE!!! (see it here)


This list changes often. Things get added, things fall off. But the 6 items above have been pretty constant. So tell me...what's on your list?
