Sadly, this mail slot won't quite work for our house as our front door is made almost entirely from glass. You better believe that I considered every possible position for it, though, including and not limited to putting a hole in our wall. Then I woke up from ebay dementia and decided that a door knocker on the wall might be... unnecessary.
Someone, SOMEONE, needs to bid on it. Go to ebay! Give them your money!

Thanks for the reassurances on our house situation but OH MY LORD if you guys knew what the seller (Wells Fargo Bank of the Devil) has put us through, you'd be hesitant too. I won't be popping corks of any kind until the day of closing... and even then I'll still probably be a little nervous about it. Of course that hasn't stopped me from making an insanely long wish list over at boxedup.com. I'm going to be pretty disappointed when I finally realize that I'm poor. But, for right now at least, denial is fun!
I bet you've been wondering what kind of impulsive ebay purchases I've been making for the new house this week. Wonder no more!
1. "Composition Head Cloth Doll in Polish Costume 1950s-60s"- The fabric on her dress ordered me to buy her for the guestroom.
2. "ADVERTISING BLANKET 5 CENT HAMBURGER SODA VINTAGE" -An advertising blanket!? Um, yes please!
3. "1972 SHIRLEY CHISHOLM FOR PRESIDENT BUTTONS" - Before Barack or Hillary, there was Shirley! I'll be framing these to hang... somewhere...
4."vintage 1940s WITNEY REGULUS Wool Blanket 68x96 ENGLAND"- Bedspread for the guest bedroom. Luckily it matches well with the polish doll.
Trust me when I say my ebaying could've turned out a lot worse. I wish someone would have told me how expensive a Saarinen tulip table would be BEFORE I made up my mind that my breakfast room just won't be complete without it. I blame the Domino Magazine pool on flickr. Specifically, this photo right here...
House inspection on Monday! Wish us luck!Labels: ebay, house, shopping, thrift
