Well Said
I know a lot of you already check out the “Well Said” sidebar on the blog, but I thought I’d point it out a few items from today in case you hadn’t seen it or usually read via a feed reader.
- Apartment Therapy is taking nominations for the best home blog: The Homies 2008. Votes for Making it Lovely are greatly appreciated (hint hint).
- The full 8-Bit Jesus Christmas chip-tunes album is now available. Judging from the lack of comments when I mentioned the first half of the album, maybe you guys didn’t appreciate this as much as I did, but I still love it.
- BarryBlog has compiled a West Chicagoland Thrift/Resale Driving Map. BarryBlog is how I found out about Jubilee, which is where I got my dining room table and all six chairs for the amazing price of $350.
And as always, check out the Well Said section every so often. Things that catch my eye usually end up linked over there.

I live in Oak Park and that West Chicago Thrift map is one of the best things that’s ever happened to me. Thank you! There are some thrift stores in Berwyn I’ve been meaning to check out, too.
Just thought I’d let you know that I did indeed enjoy your 8-Bit Jesus dl, and included We Three Konami on my Christmas 2008 Mix which I distributed liberally to all my internet-friends :-) Hope you have a happy holidays and good luck with the 2008 Homies!
Hi!
I just found your blog today (via Apartment Therapy), and had to browse it all through ’cause it looked (and turned out to be) great. You have such a great sense of style and a beautiful home :)
Happy Holidays!
thanks for this info! i’m moving to chicago in 8 days and will be needing some furniture. can’t wait to check these places out.
YES! I live in Wheaton and Jubilee saved my life for college. I bought some amazing pieces for literally nothing. Everyone should have a Jubilee in their life!
