I have never been much of a secondhand shopper, but today I learned that I have been mistaken.

My friend and colleague, Kristen, called me while I was in Ohio to let me know she found boxes of decorating books at an antique store/auction house. Kristen knows I am addicted to books and it was kind of her to remember me. 

Mom’s Memories is in Woodbridge, on 123 at the intersection of Route 1.  The place is packed with furniture, some very old, some more recent.  I found a few items that looked interesting (besides the 3 crates of books I got for $52.)  Only a few pieces to satisfy my mid-century passion, but I was assured that stock arrives constantly.  As a matter of fact, a moving van was unloading as I shopped. 

I noticed these interesting chairs.  Perhaps too banged up, but what color!
