Hanging Elephant Windchimes

 

This hanging elephant wind chime is absolutely delightful.  The little bells tinkle, evoking images of a belly dancer weaving her story. (A friend and I took a belly dancing class about 15 years ago.  Believe me, you gain a LOT of respect for anyone who can pull that off without looking like a complete klutz.  Not only does belly dancing require grace, but it’s hard work!)

I would not put this windchime outside… at least not in all the elements, although it would be wonderful outside with a cup of tea on a breezy morning!

Dimensions:  About 15W” x 22″L.

Condition:  Very good, although a couple of the bells are missing.  They seem to have gotten lost between the time the photos were taken and this posting.

Price: $32.00.  Plus 5.5% Maine State Sales Tax of $1.76 for a total of $33.76.

Unless we’re having a sale, which would be listed here, our prices are firm.

SOLD! Vintage Wooden Ironing Board

I know few of us actually iron any more.  I sure don’t, although I do remember my Grammie ironing my purple “hillbilly” dress when I was a pre-teen… over and over because I absolutely loved that dress!  Our ironing board was set up in the kitchen, where it eventually lost its usefulness for getting rid of wrinkles in clothing, and became a catch-all surface.  (Sort of like my $2,000 treadmill.  Sigh…)

Anyway, I’ve seen some really talented people do some very crafty things with these great old ironing boards.

Here’s an article I found with ideas.  I’m not at all artistic, so it would be up to you to be creative!

https://diyeverywhere.com/2017/04/24/12-fantastic-ways-to-reuse-an-old-ironing-board/

The article lists ideas such as:

  1. Upcycle as a bookshelf. Instead of buying the usual, boring bookshelf, reuse your old ironing board to display your most treasured book collection. …
  2. Make a Christmas tree. …
  3. Create a laundry center. …
  4. Make a thread organizer. …
  5. Make a chalkboard sign. …
  6. Reuse as a pegboard. …
  7. Make a display holder. …
  8. Make shelves.
    And a few more creative thoughts!

Condition:  It’s in decent shape for its age; exactly as you’d expect.

Dimensions:  About 4.5′ L x 15″ W.

Price:  $18.00.  Plus 5.5% Maine State Sales Tax, of $.99 for a total of $18.99.  

Unless we’re having a sale, which would be listed here, our prices are firm.  

Shipping & Delivery:

Gorgeous Cranberry or Wine Red Vinyl and Chrome MCM Chairs

If you love old chrome and vinyl, especially in a deep red wine or cranberry color, you have to take a look at this pair.  They are among the best vintage MCM vinyl chairs I’ve ever seen…. just look at the condition of the vinyl (the color is textured, not solid), and then the brass studs along the back… these are magnificent!

Condition:  Excellent, although the webbing under the seat (which can’t be seen unless you turn the chair upside down), is tattered on one, and the webbing on the other has been taped in place in one area. (There’s also a fair amount of lint/dust stuck to that webbing, as the photos show.)

There is some wear to the chrome on the arms (please see photos), but the vinyl is in perfect condition with no cracking… it’s as smooth as you could ask for.  (I’d use the old-fashion term including the word “bottom” but I suspect the FB police would land me in FB jail for that one.)

Dimensions:  30″H (16″ to the seat) x 19″ W (to outside of chrome arms) x 21″ D.

Price:  $295.00 for the pair.  Plus 5.5% Maine State Sales Tax of $16.50 for a total of $311.50.

Unless we’re having a sale, which would be listed here, our prices are firm.  

Shipping & Delivery:
  Shipping these chairs is not recommended because the cost to value ratio could be prohibitive.  We can deliver within Lewiston-Auburn for a $15.00 delivery fee, or Gray/Portland (along the 202 Route, or just off it) early Wednesday mornings for the same $15.00.  Shipping via USPS is $40 per chair.

SOLD! SALE! Take 50% Off Posted Price! Good Two-Drawer Nightstand with Glossy Finish

Sale!  New Inventory Coming, and We Really Need the Room…

50% Off, Friday 12/18-Sunday 12/20 ONLY!

This two drawer nightstand or bed-side table has a nice glossy finish.  The drawers are in good clean shape and overall it’s a solid, sturdy piece with an attractive “wheat” design on the top drawer (which is somewhat similar to the 2-shelf cabinet previously posted).

Please note this is primarily particle board, not real wood, although it’s still a very nice piece.  Also, because of the glossy finish, there’s a lot of camera flash in my photos that’s not staining or damage to the actual nightstand.

Condition:  Very good with a couple of exceptions: the obvious wear along the top edge and sides of the two drawers, and a section in the front left hand corner of the top that looks like it might have been caused by water damage.  (That’s mostly noticeable in certain light and at certain angles.)   

Dimensions:  23″H x 19 1/2″ W x 15 1/2″ D.

Price:  $24.00; price is firm.  Plus 5.5% Maine State Sales Tax, of course. 

Shipping & Delivery:  Please see the tabs above.

1) Details: Shipping & Delivery for mail order options.
2) Supporting the Grief Warrior Project if you’d like an appointment to see the item(s) in person prior to purchase.

SOLD! Nice Towel Cabinet or Pantry Shelf Unit

This is a nice looking 2-shelf towel cabinet or pantry shelf unit (or whatever you want to use it for!) with an attractive “wheat” design on the door.  The two shelves are adjustable.

Please note this is particle board, not real wood, although it’s still a very nice cabinet.  The color is reasonably accurate in the photo above; I don’t know why one picture gives it a yellowish tinge.

Condition:  Very good.  There’s a small scratch near the back on one side, a smaller one on top, and some light scratches near the bottom front, but otherwise it’s in great shape.  The scratches can be seen in the various photos.

Dimensions:  46″H x 19 1/2″ W x 15 1/2″ D.

Price:  $50.00.  Plus 5.5% Maine State Sales Tax of $2.75 for a total of $52.75.

Unless we’re having a sale, which would be listed here, our prices are firm.  

Shipping & Delivery:
  Shipping this item is not recommended because the cost to value ratio would be prohibitive.  We can deliver within Lewiston-Auburn for a $15.00 delivery fee, or Gray/Portland (along the 202 Route, or just off it) early Wednesday mornings for the same $15.00.  Shipping via USPS is $60.00.
