A daunting task to say the least, combining a classic Thonet rocker + bold pop art + a crystal chandelier in any room is a tall order; do it for $600 or less in a nursery and it may seem that you’ve achieved a near impossibility (from a budget standpoint alone)!
Well – it’s true. The find of a lifetime. I could hardly believe my eyes when I saw this beautiful Thonet rocker on Craigslist for a bargain – only $70 – and snatched it up as quickly as I could!!! Finding such a wonderful piece with such an affordable price tag inspired a renewed faith in the value of thrifting, garage sales, and digging through the attics and storage of family & friends for the perfect piece (at the right price) to complete a beautiful room.
I love balancing beautiful vintage pieces with bold, modern design and did just that by combining my amazing craigslist buy with this bright piece of pop art via IKEA!
