On top of the cabinet are four plants on the left, a white gaming console and a basket in the middle, and another plant on the right.

The Month of March was a Broken Record 5

Shelby Akerley

While stuck inside my partner and I made a conscious decision to stop buying furniture from big outlets. This decision was twofold: we didn’t want to contribute to these big outlets anymore, and we wanted to try our hand at giving old pieces new life. These vintage magnavox stereos were our first two attempts over covid. The first pictures show the “before,” which is still beautiful. The second pictures show the after, which is decidedly “us,” and, in my opinion, more beautiful for that reason.
