This week for Show & Tell Kelli asked us to feature something in our bedroom. I was just waiting for the right time to post something that I'd just found at an estate sale.My friend, Lynn , hosts estate sales throughout the year but I rarely seem to make it to them. Either they are too far or my schedule just doesn't permit it, for whatever reason. A couple of weeks ago, I was under the weather and not doing a whole lot so my schedule was more free than usual. Her husband called me to give me the heads up on a sale preview for the following day. (It was not going to be advertised till the day after that.) I told myself to get over there and see what they had. I was so glad I listened to myself. (smile)
I had been keeping my eyes open for end tables for our sitting room. (I had mix-matched ones.)
These tables were one of the first things I saw when I got there. I immediately told her to hold them for me while I looked around. They matched my decor and for $50 each I couldn't pass them up. They are old and made by a company named Brandt. Anyone ever hear of that Company. 
The tables were the last things we were looking for in this room and the tea cart was definitely a bonus at $125. The room is finally complete. (He he, that is, until I find some other little treasure).Thanks for visiting today and have a good weekend.

These really "float my boat!" In my opinion there are few things that are more exciting than estate sale treasures. Your room is beautiful too!
I read your post earlier while taking a break and didn't comment. Then I saw you came to visit me!
I did love your post and I love your tables and the tea cart. The room just looks perfect. It is pretty and cozy.
Thanks for sharing it and thanks for visiting me on my journey.
I am back to packing!

Those are beautiful! It's nice when you come across a treasure and how it was meant to be, just for you! Listen to yourself more often! Ha Ha!
What a beautiful room! The tables are perfect. Great finds!
You have a beautiful room, love the tea tray. Thanks for sharing!
I am totally speechless. This looks like a dreamscape...something out of a magazine for advertising home decor! Wow.
Great Show N Tell, hope you can stop by mine sometime today. Have a super weekend.
wow! nice place to stay... great catch for ST! Happy weekend! Mine's up too hope you can drop by too.
Hello Ro,
Beautiful! I happen to also have a Duncan Phyfe tea table that was made by Brandt in hte 30's. If we are talking about the same Brandt, it was a furniture company in Maryland which eventually closed in the 80's. The last time I did my research, some former employees got together and reopened the company.
You room look very pretty!
Ok, that is too funny. I have had the book for about 10 years....I guess you just didn't see it the last time you were here. Hey, that is cool that the tables are a division of Duncan Phyfe. Maybe you could google them that way. Talk to you later....
The tea cart is fabulous as is the tables.
My husband is unfamiliar with the idea of a bedroom sitting area. So when I mentioned it to him he said "So what your telling me is that you want to put livingroom furniture in our bedroom?"
You really scored big. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for visiting...what a beautiful bedroom you have...I wish I had two homes one I could do in prim and one in another type of style!!!

Oh, I love your bedroom. What a wonderful seating area. And I love the sofa and chair too. Good buy. I bought a chair for the bedroom today from my neighbor. I'll show it soon.
