Mid Century Mondays // 28

This weekend was one that I had been looking forward to all summer.  It was the weekend of the Portland Antiques & Collectibles Show.  With 1400 dealer spaces it is the largest show of its kind in the NW United States.  On Friday dealers can pay $30 for early admission 1 day before general admission.  I was glad to do so but due to some confusion I showed up 90 minutes after it began.  Despite my lateness nearly every piece that I wanted was priced well and still available.  

 I have always wanted to buy a Hans Wegner style rocking chair but had never seen one at a pickable price.  I was glad to buy this one and the ottoman was a sweet bonus.  It is now available at Hawthorne Vintage.

I was definitely shopping for summer items and this bullet planter and planter rack were just what I was looking for.  This is only the second fiberglass bullet planter I have ever bought and it has already been sold.

The planter rack was sold at Portland Flea.

 I thought this faux alligator ice chest was a risky purchase but I couldn't pass it up.  The risk paid off as it has already been sold.

 Continuing my summer theme I bought a pair of amazing vintage desk fans.  They are currently keeping our space at Hawthorne.  Update // Both have been sold.

 Mid century wall clocks are always a good find.  Each will be available once I put a new movement in them.

Saturday was the only day of the week that Heather was available to do any upholstery so I skipped going to any sales to help her finish this Eames style chair.  It turned out beautifully and //Update// has been SOLD at Hawthorne Vintage.

On Sunday I got busy shopping again and made my usual flea market stop.  I found this unusual vase with starburst cutouts as well as a project lamp and an industrial table base.  SOLD

The eyeball table lamp was refinished & rewired.  SOLD

I will be making a reclaimed wood top for this adjustable table base.
