| I found this website: http://www.thecameraangle.com/stoneville/id98.htm They make reproduction 50's styled furniture.. how awesome is it! It's really hard to find a good 50's dining setting in Australia. Does anyone know about this company and/or know how I could get my hands on some of this furniture? Seems as though you can only buy it from retailers (in America). Kid.  |

| That company is 30 minutes north of me! I will have to check them out the next time I'm in the market for some new furniture. Thanks for the link Kid! To your question, can't you order direct from them? |

Doesn't seem so, I'll contact them to find out... on their website it says they only sell through their retailers.. Geeze it would cost a fortune to ship a table and chair set to Australia!! The best things are always in America!!! |

| that's great stuff!
We have a pretty sweet kitchen table right now, but we could move that to the sun porch...I have a feeling that the seafoam motif could be killer. We already have an era breadbox and an old ice-o-matic icecube crusher in seafoam. I think an 18 cubic ft fridge could work too...I know a gas stove would be a ton nicer |

| my dream is to buy my wife the Big Chill vintage fridge she's wanted for our kitchen..but damnnnn the price is ridiculous for a basic fridge with a molded facade. _________________  http://www.thenocturnebrain.com |

| Those are pricey, but really cool.
I'm cool with the ultra cool brady bunch 70's lime gold (not quite avacado) fridge and range top my house came with...for now. |

|  I owned this set (from Kid's link, but with the style of chair in Kid's photo) almost 10 years ago. Bought it from furniture.com for like $300 with free shipping... the site went under not long after and has obviously since been repurposed. I realize that probably doesn't help much other than to tell you that these exact designs have been around for a while, they shouldn't be too hard to find. Try ebay maybe?? |

| I got some killer drinking glasses with the boomarang motif a couple months ago, broke one already.
I'd love to have one of those small kitchen tables and two chairs. I would love the booth benches, but I have a small galley style kitchen |
