I called about this one myself, because the Craigslist ad says that it has a cloth seat and back, rather than the typical rattan version (so that is not an actual picture of the chair).  The very nice lady who is selling it told me that it is a tan velour fabric in very good condition, and that she is selling it because she has to go into an assisted living facility.

I think she thought I was crazy when I told her that I would write about it on my blog, but I hope she sells it to one of you lovely people (tell her you read about it here, please, so she doesn’t think I’m crazy).  These chairs have become very popular these days and this is a reasonable price.  If the color of the fabric worked for me, I would definitely snap this up.

$65 in Ashland (about 20 minutes south of Columbia).

Bentwood Rocker.  A little pricey.  The seller is aware of what these go for on eBay but not willing to ship.  But it looks like it’s nice shape and I like these rockers.

$200 at Lake of the Ozarks.  Here’s the link: Rocker.

Wood Desk.  Another thing that is a little pricier than I would think, but these are usually solid desks, and this one looks like it is in good shape.

$100 in Eugene (about 20 minutes southwest of Jefferson City).  Here’s the link: School desk.

Slipper Chair.  Needs to be reupholstered, but I like the tapered legs.  If you chose a really bright modern patterned fabric, or even a solid-color boucle, and if you left the skirt off, it would be a cute addition to a bedroom or a nice chair for a corner in the house.

$15 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Antique Chair.

Vintage Pyrex.  I believe this is the Butterprint pattern in blue.  The seller says that one dish has a chip, but the two smaller dishes are complete with lids.

$10 in Moberly (about 30 minutes north of Columbia).  Here’s the link: Pyrex Refrigerator Dishes.

Metal Rocking Lawn Chair.  Needs some paint, and then it’s perfect for your patio.

$20 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Rocking Metal Lawn Chair.

In the meantime, I’ll round up a few items from local Craigslists from the long weekend.

Thonet Bentwood Rocking Chair!  Talk about vintage 1970 style.  It’s a statement to have one of these in your vintage home.

$150 in Lake Ozark (south of Osage Beach).  Here’s the link: Bentwood Rocker (on the Lake of the Ozarks Craigslist).

Vintage Steel Desks.  The seller has several of these and a bunch of industrial metal filing cabinets.

$50 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Metal Office Desk.  (And here’s a link to the post about the filing cabinets.)

Flexsteel Rocker Recliners.  We’re all about the 1970s today at Retro CoMO!  These would warm up your home this fall with the comfortable rocking/reclining action and the burnt orange color.  I can’t tell what shape the upholstery is in, but it doesn’t look like it’s ripped up.

$20 in West Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Flexsteel Rockers/Recliners.

Vintage Hutch/Display Cabinet.  Perfect for your dining room to display your collection of vintage Pyrex.  Looks like it is in nice condition, maple wood, with handles intact.  Are the door handles star-shaped?  I can’t quite tell and wish that Craigslist photography would improve overall.

$75 in New Bloomfield.  Here’s the link: Display Cabinet.

Vintage Chair.  This one looks like it needs some love.  That armrest is not actually attached to the chair (the guy is holding it on) and the upholstery needs to be redone, but I bet it would not be too difficult to reupholster this yourself since it has straight edges, more or less.  But what do I know?  I am very good about telling you about all these projects that you could do, and very bad about doing them myself.  It’s the enabler in me.  Still, it’s only $15.

$15 in Columbia.  Here’s the link: Vintage Chair.
