Pricing MY $pace

Make sure to check out the party here

I’m a little late to the party, but decided to try some pricing Nester style. This is is sure a lesson in reminiscing the years! Lots of things were brought many years ago,

survived Katrina, and are still well loved. The newer items cost a little more then the items they replaced. We felt fortunate just to be able to find furniture, had to go to Mobile for most of it.

A Bought the entertainment online, $1200 plus shipping. It was a hubby compromise, as he wanted that way too big TV. I figured if I had to have it in living room, it needed to sit in something pleasing to me.

That sweet little table was a $10 flea find many years ago. Had it refinished after Katrina. Leather Louis chair I got for $150 on sale at Bronstein’s in Mobile

C My favorite chair, Drexel Heritage, $600….when Bronstein’s had a tent sale

Letter D here if for the table, there’s a similar one on other side of sofa. These were steals at Hudson's salvage center about 24 years ago, both for $100. They are slightly Chippendale style, they need to be refinished as they have Katrina water damage on legs.

E Hubby’s leather sofa came from Bronstein’s also, $1500.

My favorite tufted chair. I paid $50 for it from a neighbor that was moving about 22 years ago. It is made by Drexel so it was a steal. I had it recovered before Katrina, then when all my 7 wing chairs were stolen, I pulled this back into house much to hubby’s dismay. It dried out fine, had it reupholstered, and looks great. Wished I had pulled all those other chairs in.

G Had this chair made custom at a North Carolina factory that has since shut down, Hunt Galleries. I bought the silk material on sale for 3 chairs for about $100, this chair and the other 2, letter I, below, ran around $700 with freight.

H little table was $50

My favorite chest, J, was $200 from a antique store many years ago. It wears the years well.

Sorry for these 2 fuzzy pictures, all items on mantel were gifts.

My Chinese rug was purchased 25 years ago, $1000, it too bears the scars of the years, coffee table was $200

I didn’t price the lamps, pictures, etc. No way can I remember what most of them cost. And I still need to do my Lampapalooza post!
