Pink Formica Table and 4 Chairs.  Pink!  I’m not the kind of girl who buys everything in pink, but when it comes to vintage stuff, pink is perfect.  I love these!  Look at the detail on the chairs and how the mottled fabric color matches the top of the table.  The seller says the table is in good condition, but the chairs need some minor repairs.  Love it!  I love those hairpin legs, too.  Just love all around for this set.

$150 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Pink Formica Table and 4 Chairs.

Wurlitzer Model 3000 Jukebox.  Oh, we all want a jukebox, right?  The seller says it’s in excellent condition and that you can choose 500 records out of their collection of 1000 45 RPM records to go with this jukebox at the asking price.  But then you have to move it yourself.

$1500 in Mexico, Missouri.  Here’s the link: 1960s Wurlitzer Model 3000 Jukebox.

Vintage GE Electric Oven/Range.  Working condition but needs a power cord.  Hmm.

$50 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Vintage GE Electric Stove/Range.

Vintage 50′s Hotpoint Fridge.  Working condition with no seal issues.  Has all the original pieces- shelves, racks, etc.

$200 in Jefferson City.  Here’s the link: Vintage 50′s Hotpoint Fridge.

Retro Vintage Yellow Vinyl Chair.  I think we’ve seen this one before, but if not, you could have a set (if you bought the other one).  Or you get a second chance on a yellow vinyl chair!  You know I love that yellow vinyl.  (Sigh, yellow vinyl bar!)

$80 (no location listed).  Here’s the link: Retro Vintage Yellow Vinyl Chair.

I am playing catch-up this week after a few weeks of illness and malaise and recuperation.  Sorry for the absence, though I have done a few searches in the meantime and I haven’t seen that we’ve missed much.  But look what is still available down in Osage Beach!  Why is this still waiting around when it should be all loved up in a new somebody’s house?  Lemon yellow vinyl, folks!  I don’t want to see this one posted again.  It makes me sad because it’s too gorgeous for words.  Go buy it.

Retro Kitchen Dinette Set (Lake of the Ozarks Craigslist).  I love lemon yellow vinyl from the 1960s.

You know what?  I’ll decorate your entire sunroom for you.  Buy this and that fantastic lemon yellow bar down at Funtiques in Springfield, and you’ve got yourself a room.  Then you have to invite me over.  I will wear a beehive and a muumuu and frosted pink lipstick and we will drink lemonade (or, ooh, let’s have Tom Collinses) together while we ignore our children and smoke skinny cigarettes.  And that is a crazy fantasy because I don’t have any kids and I don’t smoke.  But if you bought all this for your house, I would rent a child to ignore with you, and then I would pretend to smoke skinny cigarettes.  We would have a great time, you and me, in your sunroom.

Here is the bar you need:

Ooh, buy that TV too.  We can watch soap operas on it.  I don’t like soap operas, but we can’t not watch soap operas on that TV in this fictional room at your house.  (Like how this is all happening at your house?)  Anything else would be wrong and ridiculous.

And here is a swag lamp that you can hang up in there:

Vintage Swag Lamp (Columbia Craigslist).

This is making me ache for summer!  And I even love winter, so I don’t know what that’s about.  Lemonade and swimming pools and white plastic sunglasses.  I swear, you and I will be best friends because I will want to hang out in your lemon yellow sunroom all the time.

How’s it coming?  Bought this stuff yet?  Let me know the minute you do.

I would blame all of this on lingering effects of the flu, but honestly this is just how I get around lemon yellow vintage 60s stuff.  It makes me giddy with delight.
