My Visit To Cash & Cari's Warehouse


Welcome to used furniture HEAVEN! These pictures are just from one quarter of the space.


She has at-least 4 pallet carts 


Old washboards, doors, windows.


everywhere I looked, hidden treasures.

And look what I got to take home with me!! To test out my furniture refinishing chops, I am redoing this chair with the provided fabric.  Which is an orange velour. The wood will be a glossy white. Think 70's retro. YEAH BABY!


And while I was there Natalie, the warehouse queen, talked me into selling my Happy Chair. It wasn't hard. Especially now that I can sit on my pretty pink chair while I sew.

Cari is also planning a huge warehouse sale in July, so when I get the dates I will let you all know. 

Wish me luck!

    I WANT THAT PALLET CART!!!! I'd fix up the top and put it right smack in front of my couch in my living room....
    You would have a hard time getting me out of that place! I think I'm glad they don't have places like that where I live!

    How exciting! I have a feeling that chair is going to be beautiful once you get your hands on it. Wish we had a warehouse worth of treasures like that near me.

    WHY oh why can't there be a place in the Houston area as glorious as this?!?! Well there porbably is, but I can't find it :(

    By the way you stole my chair and I want it back! I have been searching for a chair to redo for my entry way and that new one you are about to refinish would be PERFECT! So jealous right now.

    LOL! I love that so many other commenters had the same thought as me - the pallet carts!

    You know how you were voted the winner of the Best in Show award a few months ago? There's more fun in store! I have a surprise waiting for you on my blog this morning :)

    I love that show! You are lucky to be close by. (Except if all that snow I see on her show is typical :)). Anyway, have fun with that. Can't wait to see the chair.
