Recent Obsession #1 Tufted Furniture!

I've recently become disgustingly obsessed with vintage tufted furniture lately, probably partly due to my roommate Hannah's obsession with the stuff, must be contagious.  It's sick really.  I've even resorted to just staring at sickeningly overpriced twentieth century pieces being auctioned off on ebay.  Btw although the white love seat is not tufted I just found it to be an adorable antique piece.

I love the fringe on the bottom of this one.

In the words of Rachel Zoe, I die.  Seriously.

I recently got this insane sofa for my bedroom off craigslist... for free!  The guy even drove it over here for me, being that I know absolutely NO ONE with a truck in LA.  If only my dad lived even remotely closer.  These are some photos of the puppies enjoying it.  

                                                     We couldn't get them to pose together.

The purple tufted bench is one of two that i got for $45 for my bedroom at this Jewish thrift store nearby, and the orange chair is for the living room which I got at goodwill nearby for $30.




Happy thrift store shopping!

Introduktion

First blog entry...

I feel like such a retardo writing this right now.  I basically just wanted to start a blog for myself as a kind of public diary I guess.  I just feel the need to share my thoughts with the world!  Okay, not really, but sometimes I do need some sort of outlet for all my thoughts and such.

Firstly, I hate a lot of bloggers because I think they are such tools who seem to believe they are omniscient to all facts of life.  I will be the first to admit that I am not!  And I promise to try not to act like such a tool.  My opinion is only my own and I appreciate that others are different.

If I start to get annoying, please just remind me of this later.
K?  Thanks!

p.s. I chose the name recenti tvangstankar because it means recent obsessions.  The first word being Italian and the second Swedish (since I'm Swedish and Italian and all).  I'm always obsessed with something or another, these obsessions just happen to be recent.
