craigslist finds: Eames inspired

white on white vintage Eames style "plycraft" chair $300

Vintage Singer & Company Eames era ottoman and storage unit $45

Both of these finds are pretty affordable and would make great project pieces. I one day plan to take a stab at reupholstering. (Although I have to admit sometimes those super crafty before and after pics do annoy me.)

cheers

Cheers to my oh so talented friend Ferris who just scored 3 (free!) white vintage Eames Eiffel chairs.

I'm so excited to finally use my Eames postage stamps.
