Dining Room

Liz (a friend of mine also buying and remodeling a house) and I checked out a local antique store today and found tons of furniture that could find it's way into either of our future homes.

There is an entire mid-century modern section of the antique store that I always find myself drooling over. Of course I fell in love when Liz sent me this from their web site, where they have even more furniture available.

It's such a great price for Heywood Wakefield. And it's so hard to find complete dining room sets!

Just promise me you'll reupholster the chairs....

I love love love this table, and live in OKC as well. Which antique store did you purchase it from? 3 years ago, I realize, but it's worth a shot.

Hi Chelsi,
It was from www.modernfurnitureokc.com - it was definitely a rare find. BUT I recently saw some Heywood-Wakefield pieces at a little vintage store behind / connected to Mockingbird Manor off of Western. Good luck!
