by | 5.17.12 | 3 Comments

Hello Brokesters! Another week has come and gone and that means all new awesome finds on the interwebs handpicked for you by us. Remember, Craigslist sellers will often accept lower prices, so happy haggling. (Pro tip: don’t agree on a price until you’ve seen the merch.)

ABOVE: Retro Table and Chairs  (Make an Offer–Brooklyn)
This amazing fiberglass table and chairs is so unique I’m having trouble not buying it myself.

Standing Wooden Wardrobe ($70 Brooklyn)
I love this Wardrobe! Is there ever  enough space for all of our stuff! This piece does double duty by both looking awesome and being extremely functional.

Children’s Folding Chairs ($20 each- Brooklyn)
These kids’ folding chairs would look awesome as plant holders indoor or out, you can leave them as is or paint them a bright contrasting shade like orange or aquamarine.

Leather Queen Sleeper Sofa with Nailhead accents ($399 Brooklyn)
This is an amazing pull out queen sleeper couch. The nailhead grommets and aged leather are really beautiful. Country saddle leather charm with an industrial edge.Adding a sleeper couch also ups your chances for people booking your apartment on sites like couchsurfing.org or airbnb.com. Why not invest in a couch that could possibly pay for itself in a couple of weeks!

Vintage Dressing Screen ($50–Brooklyn)
Great for studio apartments when you need just a little bit of dressing privacy but don’t want to get back into the steamy bathroom to change. Great piece that is both functional and decorative.

____________________

Upholstered Bench ($80– Manhattan)
This bench is so cool, love the polka dot upholstery, great for an entryway or as extra seating in a living room.

____________________

Orange Desk Chair ($65- Westchester)
This is a great desk chair to bring some color pop to your wooden or white desk space.

____________________

Upholstered Swivel Stool ($25– Manhattan)
Great as a desk chair, vanity chair or stool. This victorian style stool will go great with your new Dressing Screen from above.

____________________

2 Lounge Chairs (Both for $50–Long Island)
For those of you with a zipcar membership these chairs are an awesome deal for $50. Even if you don’t like the color, you can get all DIY on it by re upholstering it with some great reclaimed fabric or even painting it with upholstery paint. Yes they make upholstery paint!!
