Monday Pics - Antique Storage Edition



 I was hunting all weekend for some antique storage.  With plans to reno/redo our spare bedroom to make it a little more for us, and a little less for everyone that visits, we need to come upon some great storage solutions. 


One idea we have is pairing some fairly modern furniture with a great antique piece for contrast.  We did have some luck.  The display cabinet piece (see top picture) is in great shape, functions well (for this type of cabinet) but will the display ruin the storage function? I don't know, it might show too much.  The other option we stumbled upon is the antique file cabinet.  Drawers are amazingly smooth for the age, and it has six deep drawers for mass storage.  

Now of course, when out looking for a piece, you may come across something completely unexpected.  Thats the case with this great Pabst Blue Ribbon, fully functional neon sign.  For my office?  Yup.



And the ubiquitous mellow weekend snap, down by the beach with a beer and a towel. What a way to relax.

Have a great week everyone
