I do think there is a difference between an antique mall space and your own space. I also think that the problem we had originally wasn't the quality (or lack thereof) of the furniture. It was the traffic and location.<br /><br />With all of that said... I haven't changed my mind. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-45792085236584496892010-11-09T22:03:49.716-06:002010-11-09T22:03:49.716-06:00I see the line of demarcation between the early 60...I see the line of demarcation between the early 60s and the late 60s very clearly, because 1968 was the year I decorated my first apartment. I thought my parents' and grandparents' furniture was hideously old-fashioned and wanted my art Peter Maxish and my furnishings "mod." In the early 70s, I wanted Spanish-style, meaning gold crushed velvet and a big conquistador picture. Now I'd give anything for my grandmother's low, sleek sofa and her fiberglass lamp shades, as well as my parents' blonde coffee/end tables and room divider.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-73030367287919760192010-11-09T18:34:12.159-06:002010-11-09T18:34:12.159-06:00Guess I'm old school too.

It's defined by a completely different set of colors and icons and materials. The late 60's - early 80's.<br /><br />And the late 60's is past "mid-century", that's more "post mid-century". "Three-quarters century".<br /><br /> But... I see others who call this "mid-century", so there you go. =)1950s Atomic Ranch Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02460669868967006928noreply@blogger.com
