A friend of mine moved to St. Louis from LA and asked me where to find reasonably priced furniture that isn’t for the masses, modern and of good quality. I could think of one place, but to be honest, I didn’t feel strongly about my recommendation. Someone else must of felt my pain because The Refind Room opened up and I’ve been waiting for a “furniture budget” ever since! The owner, Suzanne, finds vintage, modern, mid-century, antique and contemporary furniture and furnishings and resells them. The best part about the outfit, is that she has turned the store into a tasteful showroom, purposefully placing pieces in “rooms” so you can see what that great coffee table might look like next to two club chairs and a great retro lamp. When I first visited, it was hard not to buy the entire “room!” Check out more photos on her facebook page.
The St. Louis Craft Mafia is having a pop-up market with 6 members who will be showcasing their own “home furnishings” among The Refind Room collection. I encourage all of you to stop by on Saturday, June 15th during our show. If anything, Suzanne’s decorating sense will give you some ideas on how you can make your new or hand-me down furniture look like you hired a stylist.
