apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Anyone have suggestions for the best basic Seattle thrift stores? I'm thinking about trying to find one or maybe two simple occasional chairs to paint and reupholster and use in my bedroom. Goodwill seems to have mostly larger, ugly furniture. Are thriftko and value village better? Do the downtown stores have more interesting selections than the ones elsewhere in the city?

have you been to the fremont antique mall @ fremont & 34th? not a thrift store, but also not overly expensive for the type of pieces you are looking for.

We have a bad terrazzo re-finishing job on our hands. Can anyone recommend a reputable terrazzo restoration company in the SF/Bay Area?
