Freecycle and CL help furnish the cabin that moxie built!

Free is good.   Particularly when we have to buy building supplies.   A taste of what we have gotten for free or very little money on CL:
  • Dresser in bathroom, free -- holds typical bathroom stuff
  • French mirror in bathroom, we paid for this but such a deal!
  • THIS END UP coffee table and chair in living room, free
  • Two storage shelving/drawer units in living room, free
  • New oak flooring, free -- for loft flooring
  • A gazillion (seriously) video tapes of all genre of movies
  • Futon and tv with VCR, inexpensive from CL
  • Hoosier, $200 but such a deal and Dave cleaned it up quite well!
  • Rustic shelving unit in kitchen, free

And then there is all the stuff we have inherited from family:

  • Antique sideboard from Mimi, my grandmother
  • Twin beds from my parents; they were my dads when he was a kid
  • To be picked up metal double bed from Nana, my other grandmother
  • Vanity in bathroom, from my mother, was my changing table when I was a wee baby
  • Various side tables, mirrors and other things from Mimi, Auntie Kay, my parents, and my in-laws

And then, of course, stuff Dave and I have accumulated:

  • Table and benches Dave made years ago
  • Dresser that was in the MD house when I bought it
  • Table and chairs that were in the MD house when I bought it
  • Washer and dryer that were in the MD house when I bought it
