If walls could talk, or swanky rec rooms or the beauty parlor in the basement, I'd love to hear what they have to say about the sale houses I previewed today in Glenview. The two estate sales going on there this weekend are full of cool stuff that tell the story of life in a different era.
Fans of the 60's will love the cocktail ware, funky tall lamps and mid century furniture in the sale at 354 N. Branch Road. You could practically live on the semi-circular sectional in the living room. That's after you get a perm in the basement beauty parlor. Three bedroom house with rec room, patio, basement and garage.
Five minutes down the road at 1240 Sherwood is an homage to hobbies and crafts. Fishing lures, knitting, antique trains and track, nautical charts, bow and arrow and fashion. The three bedrooms are set up as a craft room, jewelry and accessories room and clothing collection for womens size 12 and 14. The lower level contains hobby and Christmas.
Here's the illustrated highlights and details for one sale. I'll post the second in a separate entry.
Sale #1 is 354 North Branch Road, Glenview IL 60025
12/4/2009 9:00 am to 3:00 pm (Friday)
12/5/2009 9:00 am to 3:00 pm (Saturday)
The photos are arranged by art, barware and miscellaneous, lamps, then furniture.
