Sure I still have unpacked boxes begging for attention, a garage full of unloved furniture, and a room devoted entirely to packing paper and cardboard, but a girl’s gotta shop for her new pad, right? I put it off as long as I could, but yesterday in between errands I managed to speedwalk through an antique mall which was, perhaps predictably, stuffed with junque. Still, while mining the hills and sifting the sands I managed to find some gold in them there hills.
You may recall my obsession with trunks, and especially with all things Sarreid. Well, this guy may not be a Sarreid, but he’s still damn handsome. I think he’s going to make the perfect end table, and toy storage is always a bonus.
The booth that housed this beauty also held a number of other curiosities. I kind of wish I had bought this stainless footlocker, too.
Another trip may be in order? Who’s in?
And now I have to figure out how to unload my score from the front seat of the car, where it is wedged in tighter than Kim Kardashian’s booty in… well, anything.

I love the trunk dresser that Karly found for me at Four Hands. Even with shipping to NOVA it was less than the MDF/veneer stuff I was finding around here. Maybe I should move to Austin?
So what you’re saying is…your trunk has junk in its, uh, trunk. It is fabulous! Speedwalking clearly has its benefits.
Oh, and as you know…I’m in. I actually really like the ashtray pictured. Too bad I don’t smoke.
Do you mind sharing what mall this is? I live in Austin and would love to check it out!
Kai, it’s the Antique Mall up on McCann.
Connie, you should absolutely move!
Fabulous. I want one too please.
Also speed walking is the only way to do those joints & keep my sanity.

Wish I could tag along on your next trip.
