You wanna talk antiques? These are just a few things I found that are stored away but we won't mention whose they are...
Remember these? I think that the government required anyone and everyone to stop making them because they were so dangerous. I can't believe that our parents and grandparents used these and I probably sat in this very one...oh how scary is that? You don't even want to see the high chair that was stuffed away in the corner. I think if it was ever used again that it would be considered child endangerment.
Some poor old sap out there is thinking, "These chairs are amazing!" Ok, some reach freak out there would love to decorate their apartment in florescent orange and teal, one low back chair and one high back chair. Today, in my world these need to go to the DUMP! See that old mattress too? It's so old it can't even keep it's form when standing and it weighs a ton because of all the dead skin it's packed with. Maybe that should go with the chairs.
More than anything...this has got to go!!!!!!!!! Believe it or not, this is a box-spring mattress. The cover, you say? There isn't one. Ok, there's a mattress that goes on top so you can sleep somewhat comfortably but the box-spring...it's just a big hunk (and mind you about 200 pounds worth) of metal. Can you imagine being a kid and trying to hide under this bed, your face, arms, legs, whatever would come out all bloody from scrapes.

Wow that is so funny! We saw a lot of antiques when we cleaned this house out! Its even funnier to think they were in style once!!
looks like you've got some projects on your hands
Yay for Grandma's stuff! Are you seriously getting rid of it?
Oh no, we're not getting rid of it. She wanted her stuff put back into the room we were using as a computer room. Let's not get started on how I'm really feeling about that.
