one in a million

i throw low bids on things all the time. bids that i know i'm not gonna win anything with. why do you ask? for days like this.


when this was first listed it had a BIN of $175. i didn't even really give it much of a thought other than "gee, i wish i could afford to have 'real' nice things like that". and went on with my day. now don't get me wrong, i love my thrifted collection. but sometimes i just wish i could have things that didn't need cleaned up or fixed. or things that were actually don't by an artist or designer instead of some jackassed knock off.



 how i even came across it again i don't know. but there it was, with 2 days left sitting at $10.50. without thinking i bid $15. 


i won for $11.50.

really just a beautiful thing.
