Warmer weather is finally (finally!) sneaking back into our lives. As we peel off our winter clothes and put them back where they belong — storage — we can’t help but think that our homes could use a little lightening up, too.
Check out these gorgeous hand-painted Italian flameback chairs. Upholstered in blue-and-white vintage French ticking fabric, they’re perfect for welcoming spring. And they’re comfy too!
Brunch anyone?

Sure, we all love to find that perfect piece of scavenged perfection — that treasure tucked away in the corner of some antique store or flea market that seems made just for you. But once in awhile, it’s cool to have something that really WAS made just for YOU. And it’s even cooler if that something is made from bits and pieces of other salvaged treasures!
Thanks to a good friend of Blue Moon who has a 5,000-square foot architectural salvage warehouse outside of Vadalia, Ga., we have three new amazing items in the store. Each of these is an example of custom pieces you could order yourself!
This gorgeous farm table is made of 2×8 heart pine planks that are more than 100 years old! This is sold, but another is expected to arrive in the store Saturday! The price will be $1,450.
Also already scooped up is this huge wooden cabinet with french door fronts. So much storage! Another one, also $1,495, should be in on Saturday!
This black cabinet can be used as a bar, server, kitchen island or media station. We just love the wood top contrasted with the dark front. This one is $795.
And, like we said, you can order your own custom pieces similar to these in whatever size you need. Call us to set it up!

We’re so obsessed with this 10-foot-long industrial table that we’ve put it right in our front window. Can’t believe it’s still around! (Maybe, depending on when you read this…) Anyway, if you’ve got the space for a 10-foot-long gorgeous wooden-and-teal-metal dining table — well, first of all, we’re jealous, and secondly, GET THIS!
Getting the whole thing in the picture was a challenge, OK? But surely you can see how cool this is. Plus, we’ve sanded down and completely refinished the top, making it perfectly sanitary for dining or just hanging out.
Did we mention the teal metal detail? LOVE.
Our next fabulous find may look familiar. Perhaps you’ve seen something like this in the retail furniture world. Perhaps you thought “Wow, doesn’t that look authentic?” Perhaps it was overpriced. Well feast your eyes on this wooden treasure — an original industrial rolling cart full of years and character.
Check out the cool detail work.
Picture it as an accent piece or as a coffee table. Beautiful and functional!
There’s nothing like one-of-a-kind!

With pleasant weather greeting us for the first (first!) time since 2010 began, we thought it was cause for celebration. We’re digging this retro lounge chair — recovered with a bright birdcage print. Can’t think of a better way to soak up the Florida sunshine. Sit this baby on a porch or by your window, curl up with a book and enjoy.
Check out the matching ottoman…
Want a closer look at this adorable fabric? Doesn’t it just make you smile?
Wow!

Maybe this new year you’ve made a list of pesky flaws to work on. Maybe you’ve vowed to make THIS the year for reinvention. Maybe you’ll be a new YOU come 2011. Here at Blue Moon, we already think you’re perfect. But when it comes to furniture, there’s always room for improvement.
Take this fabulous chippy kitchen island. Sturdy, colorful and full of character. What could be better than that?
How about the fact that this island was recreated from a big old door? Check out the front detail with the old metal hardware.
It’s all thanks to a Blue Moon friend who builds furniture out of architectural salvage, including custom work. Call Blue Moon to work it out.
Maybe this is the year you reinvent yourself AND your favorite furniture. Hmm?

Not only does Thursday usher in the start of a new year and a new decade, but it’s also scheduled to host a rare beauty — a blue moon!
What better excuse could there be for a Blue Moon SALE?
Stop by all day Thursday, Saturday (10 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and Sunday (noon to 5 p.m.) to treat yourself to 15 percent off EVERYTHING. The store’s closed Friday, so take advantage of this deal while you can!

The proposition of eating at your desk may conjure thoughts of scarfed PB&J’s or vending machine raids, but not so fast.
We bet you wouldn’t forgo a feast at this set-up.
This retro office-ware came from New York City — refurbished and resold to a stylish couple at a flea market who eventually passed it on to Blue Moon as a dining set. Sleek, modern and one-of-a-kind. It politely makes a statement without overpowering the room.
Oh, and did we mention the six adorable chairs? The slipcovers bring a certain formality to the industrial flavor. Still, chairs sans-slips look pretty cool, too.
Stop by to have a look for yourself. But hurry — this treasure is sure to be scooped up in no time!
