Do You Own Any Vintage Furniture?
Community member Deemurph started to collect vintage furniture about eight months ago. She's now so hooked on bringing beautiful old pieces into her home that she created a group called Vintage Delight, as a place for you all to share your vintage finds. This amazing raspberry velvet tufted armchair is just one of several bygone chairs she owns.
Found It! Ace Hotel Table
The Side by Side Suite at the new Ace Hotel in Palm Springs cultivates a moody vibe with its curtained-off, king-sized bed and vintage furniture as well as great tech products, including 42-inch flat screens, MP3 plugs, and vinyl record players.
My eye was drawn to this great vintage coffee table. I'd seen it before.
Etsy Find: Black Lacquer Chairs
I've been finding some very cute furniture pieces lately on Etsy. From the Fruit Stripe Dresser to the Jean Pelle Vanity Cabinet, it seems as if more vendors and customers are discovering that Etsy's not just for home accessories and jewelry these days.
I love the purple exuberance of this pair of Mediterranean Chairs ($950).
Coveted Crib: Laurel's Rainbow Bright Home (Part One)
When I knocked on the door of Laurel's home, I knew I was in for a treat. Laurel, a visual artist who works in low-relief wall pieces, bought her two-bedroom, one-bath 1928 Craftsman home from her grandparents five years ago. Since then, the space has been extensively renovated and personalized.
Crave Worthy: Paul McCobb Velvet Sofa
As I've mentioned before, I have a slight addiction to velvet furniture. This Paul McCobb velvet sofa ($5,000) is no exception. McCobb, who was known for his practical, flexible designs, worked in the US after WWII and catered to middle-class buyers, though since then his designs have been more coveted (and pricey).

Coveted Crib: Catherine's Parisian Sanctuary
Catherine from Mill Valley, CA, was recently chosen as the Domino Decorating Contest winner. A single mother, Catherine had to wait 17 years before converting two smaller bedrooms into her large master bedroom. This handy lady completed the demolition herself, then hired workers to install closets, floor, and doorways.

Coveted Crib: Slaughterhouse Fine
A former slaughterhouse in Ulricehamn, Sweden, was transformed into this fabulous coveted crib. Outfitted with furniture and accessories from around the world, the space feels much more metropolitan than you'd expect from a rural Swedish home. An extensive collection of artwork is mixed with both vintage and modern furniture.
Before and After: A Vintage Chair Makeover
TeamSugar member Sgdish had a plain vanilla, and stained, vintage armchair with a great frame that was just begging for a makeover. She decided to "be bold and choose two different coordinating fabrics" for reupholstery, but used the same fabric for the chair's trim as on its backside. The results are truly impressive and inspiring.
Etsy Finds: Antique Mirrors
These days, most trends are historically referential, be it in fashion, furniture, or even finance. But when it comes to mirrors, all the trends I've been spying as of late have been deeply rooted in the past. Think starburst mirrors, Rococo mirrors, tri-fold mirrors.
