Lamp kit WITHOUT lampshade (Petworth/ Park View)
Unfortunately the star-shaped lampshade got torn many years ago. Buy a new lampshade or create your own for this versatile kit. Use with an incandescent bulb over 40 watts may scorch paper lampshades or even set them on fire! LED bulbs are probably better. Plastic lampshades might melt, scorch or ignite at even lower temperatures, so be careful with creative upcycling.

Cello (Rosslyn)
Hello! I'm in search of a 4/4 cello. I couldn't take my cello with me when I moved because I couldn't afford a hard case for it to survive the flight, so I was forced to leave it at my parents' house overseas. I'd love to get a new one, but it's still too expensive for me. If you have a cello collecting dust in your home, I'd love to take it off your hands. It can be any model - I just want to be able to play again. Thanks!

Outdoor reclaimed wooden bench (Petworth)
Off of Sherman Circle in Petworth. Just in time for your backyard BBQ! well loved reclaimed wood outdoor bench. Some of the wood is warping and needs to be reinforced to the metal (see pics). This was on my To Do list from last summer but I’m realizing the limitations of my woodworking abilities. Another dream deferred…! It still has a lot of life in it and I would hate it to go into a landfill. It’s solid but two people can carry it easily and I can help you put it in your vehicle. Dimensions: Width: 63” Depth: 15” Height: 18” Please DM me a specific time window for pick up. Thx and happy Summer! 😎
