retro treasure on president's day? yup.

thrift store fiends, rejoice. president's day marked a 50% off sale at savers and an oodle of thrifty delights at the DI. were we there? psh. that's a funny joke.

of course we were.

and we found these--these glorious little tv trays. yes, tv trays. with a caddy. try and tell me you've seen anything as glorious as these beauts. also, $5 for a set of four. beat that.

are you loving this caddy? you better. it's amazing.

we've wanted some for a long time, but we've never been able to find any. until now, suckas!

why yes, we DO eat in front of the tv every night, and yes,  we DO love it. are they tacky? extremely. do they fit right into the morby home? like a glove.

then, as if they couldn't get any more kitsch, we worked a little mod podge magic. i had a lot of old under the radars, eurotuners, and better homes and gardens to get rid of. the opportunity just presented itself so brilliantly.

speaking of brilliant--mitch is a closet mod podger. i believe his craftiness came out in full bloom with this project. i also believe the pony tail unleashed some sort of man-crafter mojo. kinda like magic mojo. only better!

and here they are. beautiful, ya?

i went with a nice, tasteful music theme:

it's like eating with my bff's every night. jenny, hot chip, and radiohead--right there with me, experiencing my veggie burger delight on a tuesday evening.

mitch went with a very manly chic eurotuner theme:

we luff them. kitchen tables are totally for suckers.

on another note, i also found these absolutely spectacular boots at savers.

$4, suckas! $4! and yes, they do look stunning with sweat pants. don't hassle me. and don't act like you don't like it. they're real leather and made in brazil. i'd like to think they're circa 1975. basically they're just the coolest boots ever. and they go exceptionally well with the tv trays if i do say so myself.

huzzah for thrift stores. 'twas a fulfilling monday.
