On the Next Episode of Hoarders
Written by whoorl · Filed Under irks, photos, strange, indeedy
While helping to empty out her husband’s storage unit, a wife makes the startling realization of just HOW MUCH mid-century furniture, accessories, objects and art he has been “collecting” over the past several years.

February 3rd, 2010 2:44 pmI covet the bentwood rocker, unfortunately I don’t think my ass will fit it.
At least his hoarding results in useful items, we have quite the collection of old design magazines and bike parts around here.

February 3rd, 2010 3:14 pmI agree . . . at least he has good taste! My husband’s hoarding is more in the records arena . . . easier to store but he’d be MAD jealous of your husband’s mid century furniture stash. I’m jealous myself!

February 7th, 2010 6:20 pmChris and I had quite a chuckle at that picture of D.
We have quite a stash of revolving furniture in the unfinished part of our basement as well. My friends wonder why our coffee table is never the same.
We look forward to pics of the new place and congrats on your girlie news. :)
