The cool old sewing console




The cool old sewing console





This thing is a lot like a Transformer. I think M's mom found it at a garage sale or thrift store for some ridiculous price. It didn't come with its (probably inoperable) sewing machine. I like the trapezoidal form.

I'm guessing that it was made in the 1950's, but I'm just spitballing. I ought to check for any maker's mark. I did notice a serial number on it.

My parents used to collect antiques from auctions — mostly well-made furniture in Mission and Art-Deco styles from the 30's or thereabouts. I loved finding little signatures on them, and inspecting all the weird little hardware and secret compartments. Old furniture is just very different from modern stuff.











Handmade Mahogany Mission Style Bed, Nightstands and Armoire




Handmade Mahogany Mission Style Bed, Nightstands and Armoire





These fine pieces of furniture were designed by me and handcrafted by my father. The bed fits together with wooden pegs rather than metal bed hardware, and the nightstands have a hidden drawer for storage. The armoire is extremely heavy and is equipped with 4 storage drawers, 2 cubbies and a rod for storing clothes inside. I stained all of the pieces pictured with Minwax brand "Special Walnut" furniture stain and finished off with a clear matte varnish. Pieces are one-of-a-kind and invaluable to me :)
