You can find almost ANYTHING on Craigslist… from furniture, jobs, and cars to hotdog buns, a lunch buddy,or maybe a fiberoptic Christmas bear. As we all know, Craigslist can be dangerous so don’t give out too much info, bring a friend if you can, and be aware. That being said, searching Craigslist can be like hunting for buried treasure. It’s better than the newspaper classifieds (pictures, more info,and email communication) and better than ebay (no paypal, shipping or listing fees)! Depending on where you live, Craiglist might be HUGE. My Craigslist, for example, is magnormous!
My latest Craigslist find is a vintage mirror for a console table in my basement. The table is a flat white color and the wall color behind it is Benjamin Moore Texas Leather. The mirror is large (42 inches), weighs more than me, and needs to be spruced up with some new paint. I can’t decide, should I paint it black or white? Or maybe some other color? I polled some friends at DecorPad and black was the winner.
This beast cost me only $10
I cannot wait to see what it looks like once you paint it black! It kinda reminds me of the antique one Holly just did at inthefunlane. With the mismatched black mirror! LOVE that look!
