Throw Back Tuesday, Vintage Metal Carts

August 5, 2014 by Michelle Hinckley |

I tend to find something I like and then buy it up in excess, which my husband reminds me is also known as “hoarding”.
Case in point, when I went through a vintage school chairs phase.
Then there was that time I had 4 wingback chairs stock piled in my garage.
I also bought three dressers on Craigslist, not because I needed them, but because I thought they had great lines and I planned to refinish then sell them.
My name is Michelle and I have furniture hoarding tendencies.

Little by little I’m letting go of things.
I’m realizing I’m going to be an old lady one day surrounded, not by cats, but by 100 vintage school chairs.
Actually not that grim of vision if you ask me.

In order to clear out for my son’s bedroom makeover, I’m letting go of another item I have way too many of.
I love these vintage school metal carts. The more beat up, the better.

I’ve done almost every fathomable thing I can think to do with them.
I’ve repainted them and turned them in to bar carts…

    Preference in order, third Picture down from the top, number 8 and number 4. I would pick three cushion over 2 cushion seat. Be sure it is leather, the softer the better. I have two leather sofas and all my children have asked to will these two sofas to them. They are so soft it sucks the life out of you when you lounge on them. Best choice of furniture I have ever made. VERY EASY TO MAINTAIN AND CLEAN!
