furniture finds.



I was reading this Chicago house tour on Nesting. Photographer Janet Moran "found that Eames rocker in the trash...pristine, just sitting in a dumpster" and the "Saarinen table at the Salvation Army for $30."

What? I hear stories like at all the time. Is Arizona the only place that doesn't have incredible furniture sitting around in dumpsters or on the side of the street? Not fair.
