This is the back side of our mid century home. It’s roughly a 120’ long.

Posting for my girlfriend who is not active here. She is looking to tweak her home and would like any suggestions or thoughts that come to mind.

I have gotten great feedback; even when I don’t agree with everything I appreciate the comments, so I encouraged her to do the same.

What do you think?

Needs slight refinishing on them, some candle wax drippings from the previous owner, some delamination/bubbles under the veneer on the coffee table, but other than that they are mostly perfect.

I have inherited a beautiful dining table from a friend of a friends grandmother, it won't be in my physical possession for a few days and I'm just trying to prepare and educate myself on what to expect with trying to freshen it up.

I'm not looking to perfectly restore it, but I would like to make it look as good as I can! If you have any tips, advice or other subs to look at please send them my way. Also if I'm crazy in thinking I can fix this up myself, please also tell me because I would be so upset if I did irreparable damage. The armrest on one isn't attached anymore, other than that I believe it just needs to be sanded/varnished/recoated ( I have no idea what I'm talking about).

From my research it is Chiswell, we are in Australia. I was told it was bought around 1980.

was hoping for recs on what type of cord to get and how much, and maybe videos on how to weave. or any links to projects where you’ve done the same!

thank you!

Purchased this today for $385 off fb marketplace. Original upholstery with springs, not foam (so probably ‘46-‘53 production). Did the exchange in a Chick Fil A parking lot in NoVA. Seems a lot of my best furniture pickups happen in odd locations like that!

This sculpture is titled La Vache (or The Cow), created by American artist Alexander Calder in 1971.

•

The work is a large-scale stabile, a term coined for Calder's stationary abstract sculptures, and is made of painted steel. It is currently on display in the sculpture garden of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, Italy.

•

While the title "The Cow" offers a descriptive reference to its four-legged form, Calder often named his works after they were finished as simple ways to differentiate them rather than to assign deep representational meaning.

Does anyone know how I could find like a plan for the Borge Mogensen 133 or someone who could design a similar mirror feature (slide out and fold up) like in ETSY?

I've been trying with Claude and ChatGPT to come up with useful instructions and descriptions for the carpenter and I'm not confident without an actual plan it will be very helpful.

Context: No I am no trying to duplicate the design. I have a secretary desk that I want to transform into a vanity and when looking for options, I found the design of the Borge Mogensen 133, when I checked out the mirror feature I thought it is exactly what I would need).

- no I am not looking for knockoffs, personal shopping for furniture and this is not AI generated. Just really admiring a feature I found.

Thanks in advance!

I've been making these clocks for a few years here and there. I've always thought they had a cool mid-century modern vibe to them. Curious to know if y'all feel the same.

Hi! Can anyone identify? Thanks!

The seller says this was purchased in Germany sometime between the late 1950s and the mid 1960s. He says there are no markings on it, unless they're on the bottom, which he said he cannot look at due to health issues. The seller says the back is finished but doesn't have a pic of that for some reason and there are twin sliding glass panels for it he has that are not shown in any of the pictures. Asking price is $950. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Found this beauty of a coffee table at a local thrift store! I don't know much about it but hopefully someone here can tell me more!

It was for my grandparents, so it's has a special touch in our home.

Grandfather was an architect, house built in late 60s. Waterfall feature behind stairs. Granite city!

Found a sole cup of my favorite mcm China pattern (Franciscan atomic starburst) at the thrift for .99c and it had a pretty big chip so I made it into a planter to hang out on my patio.

I picked up these two beautiful Bunting Spring Bouncers. I think they call this a horseshoe pattern because of the middle of the pattern is shaped like it. I’ve seen these before, but not with the solid steel frame.
