Bringing in the new

My SIL is constantly searching for great new modern furniture to sell in the store, in addition to the phenomenal vintage modern pieces he finds. We help customers create unique living spaces by mixing old and new, and we practice what we preach, as our homes are decorated that way as well.

We have most recently become a dealer for Eastvold Furniture. This is how designer Matt Eastvold describes the company:

Eastvold Furniture is a small Minnesota-based company that designs and builds finely crafted furniture. The pieces built in our small rural shop end up scattered all over the country and will (we hope) be passed down to future generations. One of our highest priorities is to use quality, sustainable materials. Our furniture is designed to stand the test of time, and we believe that the creation of each piece should benefit both our community and our planet.

We are both pleased and proud to add the Eastvold line to our selection of products at Mid2Mod.

We also got in some new Gus*Modern pieces that we're really excited about. We have been carrying Gus* products for quite some time (and have Gus* sofas and chairs in both our homes, so we love the line.) Take a look at these beauties.

  3. Dana -- the Eastvold pieces look like a great addition to the store. I love hearing a little of the backstory as to how these items get chosen for your shop. Cheers - CT

    1. My SIL researches products for a long time before becoming a dealer. He has to be certain that they are well made, that they consistently get excellent reviews and that the company's philosophy is in line with ours. I think the Eastvold line is a great fit.

  4. Nice furniture. The crates could be sold as the hip rural retro look for college students!

    1. I hadn't thought about that...but I bet some savvy DIYer has been dumpster diving at our store for those crates.

    2. Update: I just mentioned your comment to my SIL, and he said a couple of hipsters actually did ask if they could buy the crates from him...for $150!

    1. You can always stop by just to hang out. You could eat at the All Good Cafe and then walk a few doors down to visit. I know you'd love getting photos made at Dallas PinUp or your hair done at Deep Ellum Hair Studio too. The owners are friends of ours.

    1. I love the legs on that credenza. I just bought a stool for my bathroom from CB2 with similar legs. Glad you liked the unpacking photos. We thought we'd give you a glimpse of behind-the-scenes.
