Bug control items (North side of Elmhurst)
Gifted
This box containes never used or partially used bug control items for use either inside or outside the home. They are all yours if you can use them. And ironically this will be my last post for awhile. I won't be "bugging" you any more. A big BIG THANK YOU who claimed items I was giving away. You made the process of decluttering my home and moving so much easier as items I cherished for many years found new homes and new purposes. And a BIG THANK YOU to all of you who use Trash Nothing! What an amazing and wonderful site this is community of people who use it. You all make my heart sing!!! [and you are lucky it is my heart and not my voice... EGADS!!! LOL]

Gifted
This is a solid wood dining room table. Smallest as shown: 68 inches length by 44 inches wide by 30 inches high Three leaves, each is 12 inches. So table can extend to 104 inches long. Smallest sits six comfortably. Longest sits 10 to 12 [2 at each end] comfortably. 5 chairs as shown in the picture recently rebuilt so very solid. Need to be recovered as the seats are showing wear. Padding as shown in the picture to cover the table at any size. Table top shows wear and tear from many years of family gatherings and conversation around the table. Used by a family of 9 (seven children) for over 40 years. The stories this table could tell!!!! but won't. Let this table keep your dining conversation secrets, too.

Vintage ping pong table (North side of Elmhurst)
Expired
This table comes as two pieces for easier transport. Each piece is 60" wide by 54" long, x 30" high. The table comes with a net, the brackets to hold the net in place, 4 paddes, and some ping pong balls. The legs fold down so the table can sit flat for storage or transport. As you may have noticed, this ping pong table was also used for many other things, including art projects, a mars landscape, a brio train set up... and so on. You might want to sand down the top and repaint it if you plan to play serious ping pong, although all the "hills" and "valleys" created by the dried paint will make for some interesting trajectories, while deepening eye-hand coordination. It is a great table and has served my family well for many many years! If you have room, consider adding this fun piece to your home! And then let me know what creative ways you used it. Thanks for using trash nothing.

Wicker rocking chair (North side of Elmhurst)
Expired
This is a beautiful wood rocking chair with a high back, so a tall person can enjoy it too. The wicker seat was enjoyed a little too much by squirrels and needs to be redone. The seat cushion provided covers the damage and makes the chair quite usable until or if the caning is fixed. There is also a duck cover to protect it over the winter months. A lovely chair chair that just needs a little lovin' Hope you are interested!

Floor mirror (North side of Elmhurst)
Gifted
Wooden stand with mirror. Screws to hold the mirror in place are not effective and the mirror floats back. A small object in front (such as a waste can) holds the mirror in front. A handy person could add a bracket on the back of the mirror attaching it to the turn screw area to solve the problem permanently. It is a beautiful piece, just needs someone who is a bit handy to make it perfect again.
