Tracy SF's Profile

Looks great! Thanks for the links but still wondering, who made the sofa?

Thanks, Max, for expanding the notion of local to include furniture and furnishings. I think people at all income levels are able to access really great affordable furniture through craigslist, flea markets and thrift stores. However, I believe that in some cultures, used is considered bad. I'd love to know how to overcome that stigma.

In the meantime, I made a decision when I moved that every thing that came into the house would be used. I haven't been able to completely stick to that rule, some closet fittings came from Ikea, but mostly it's worked, and kept me from slipping into a standard style. I've also met a range of characters that would fit into a great detective novel.
