Ebay Tuesday

Ebay can be a love/hate experience...
Love... you find that perfect gem that no one is bidding on & there is no reserve.
Hate... "Pick Up Only"  and it happens to be in Grand Rapids, SD & you are in Lizard Lick, NC.
Love... when the item ships Greyhound for $13.00.
Hate... 873 people have already bid....

Love it... hate it..... alright enough of that. Love to hate Ebay & confess to go there @ least 3 x a day....
Sidebar ~ do want to say if you are watching an item plezzz don't bid til the last 15 seconds as it is dumb, dumb, dumb to drive the  bidding up 6 days in advance... work with me people.

Here are few gems worth watching & waiting til the last 15 seconds to bid on....

Fabric Junkie

Seriously addicted to fabric and today am searching the cyber-ways for kick ass bargains. One of my fabric spots is fabrics.com. They always have the latest & greatest in apparel & home decor + they run the bestest sales. Right now by George they are rockn' a bitchn' Presidents Day Sale. Myself am on the hunt for Home Decor fabrics.

Waverly Seeing Spots color Noir

Waverly Circular Motion Color Tigerlily

Waverly Criss Cross color Raspberry

Waverly Sun n Shade Sea Scallop Color Coral Reef

Waverly Network color Plum
(love the way they put the ruler on the images so you really get the scale + their ample size swatches rock)



Did you notice Waverly stole the show??? Being a fabric groupie have to shout out praises for the wonderful job Waverly has done in reinventing themselves. A couple of years ago would have bet they were dead in the water. How many times can you reinvent English Ivy??? They were taken in by the remarkable Kaufmann Group & woala they are now back in the hunt with the hippest designs & super groovy products.








Really this is all Waverly...  who knew??? How fun are they!

PS ~  note fabrics.com has all the usual home decor suspects; Braemore, Covington, Dwell, Duralee, P Kaufmann, Premier Prints, Robert Allen + much , much more. Heart them!

Holy Moly Console

Lawzy I love me some Chinoise Lacquer goodness & over @ Liv Vintage  is one rockn' cool console/credenza- you decide what to call this gem.... I for one call it a little bit of heaven. Look at it.... seriously is it not the coolest? The lacquer is dripping with "come to me baby" style & the hardware.... r u kidding me, D-I-V-I-N-E.
Hollywood Regency Console
I love Liv Vintage (for those of you old enough to remember say this in the voice of Billy Dee Williams when he played Gale Sayers & he said "I love Brian Piccolo," if you are too young to remember move on...)  They have helped me buy some groovy pieces for my soon to be new home; reveal to come later. In the mean time get over there, see her great Palm Beach Chic lovelies, drool, study, do not hesitate too long & BUY! She is a doll & a breeze to work with. Ships Greyhound & that is the best deal around. Put them on Speed Dial now!

More goodies from Liv Vintage - if you clicked above you already know, those too lazy to have bothered Oye....this will get your butt over to there.
Pagoda Side Tables

Lovely Lemon Yellow Lamp


Hurry, I can not be held responsible if these are gone when you get to Liv cause you procrastinated....
