This little Victorian sofa dates to about 1900 and was reupholstered in the 70s in a cream colour velvet. I have a photographer friend who borrows it about once a month for photo shoots. The rest of the time it's in my BnB. :-)

This is my most favorite side-by-side antique secretary. It dates to approx 1900 based on family lore. It has a bow front glass door. I keep all my Scottish clan memorabilia in it in my BnB. More photos in comments. :-)

This wardrobe in my BnB dates to 1960. I stripped it and refinished it about 4 years ago. Prior to that, the finish made it all one color. I much prefer the different wood tones and seeing the wood grain. ?

Snagging two couches and a corner chair from my dad’s farm. He’s retiring and sold the farm. Except for one more table, these are the last antiques heirlooms I’m claiming 😊
