WEEKEND SCORE! THOMASVILLE ALLEGRO COLLECTION

Thanks to my good friend Kathy (My Interior Life), I scored a Thomasville Faux Bamboo (Allegro Collection) bedroom set over the weekend (dresser, mirror, nightstand and two twin headboards).  It was a Craigslist post that I somehow missed.  I plan on getting the pieces painted and selling them separately.  Let me know if any pieces interest you!
 
I'm realizing how hard this line is to come by based on how little there is available on Etsy and Ebay (the highlighted links will show you what's available on each site.....not much). 
 




Now of course, once again, is the dilemma of what color to paint. I've already posted inspirational pics for this type of furniture when I did my Henry Link post so click on it for a refresher.  It's always easier to paint something when you know the space it's going to be used in.  Not knowing, makes me lean towards a safer more versatile color.  Thoughts?

  1. I struggle with color myself when its an item for sale. For me, safe and saleable colors have been black or white or gray, but if you sell online you probably have a broader audience. The pieces are beautiful - surely they'll get snapped up quickly!

  2. What a great find! So many pieces. Can't wait to see what colors you decide on. I know black, white, and gray are safe but these pieces would look awesome a striking color.

  3. Yay! You got them! I was just wondering today what happened with that. Now you wanna hear something crazy? I'm in a rearranging mode and may be moving my Parson's desk out of my bedroom and into my guest room to make it into more of an office. If that's the case, I may be needing a dresser. Hmm. Although, I'm pretty sure my faux bamboo kitchen table is from the same Thomasville line. But they'd be in different rooms. I'll let you know. Gotta think on this one.

  4. I love the furniture also. I have the triple dresser, mirror, desk, armoire, and standing mirror. Yellow with age, I recently started restoring it back to white. My favorite is the armoire, it is much bigger than you usually find.

  5. I have many pieces to this set. They are all in great shape, but I am missing a few knobs and handles. How and where can I get them? I am really trying to avoid doing custom, which can be so costly, and I don't want to change them all either.

  6. Aw, this was an exceptionally nice post. Finding the time and actual
    effort to generate a really good article… but what can I say… I put things off a whole lot and don't manage to get anything done.
