This Retro 1960s Kitchen Step Stool with Two Pull Out Steps, brings back memories of crawiling up on one just like this to help my mom or my Nana bake cookies. Back in the early 80's when my Nana's kitchen was still the olive green and brown, she had a stool that sat in the kitchen that all the grandchildren would use to help cook. Her stool was a mustard yellow color and many of us grandchildren had fallen from it, sat eating at the table from it, knelt on it to reach the counter top to help out or to "lick" the spoon, or just to climb on.
This adorable vintage metal step stool.....would look cool in a retro kitchen. Yellow paint is a bit rough but the seller left that way so someone could upcyle to match their own decor. Steps pull out easily and give a good reach so it's functional as well as retro decor touch. Stool measures approximately 32" tall.

Vintage Wood Letterpress Furniture
I love all old furniture and the story that each piece tells. When I came across this vintage wood letterpress piece I fell in love!! This is a very old cabinet that stored wooden furniture pieces used for letterpress. It is still in great condition and can be used perfectly for just that purpose. It has a great industrial, rustic green finish. I believe it is from the early 1900s. If letterpress is not your thing, you can use it for knick-knacks, craft storage, office supplies, etc. It is a lovely piece no matter what you put in it.
This would be a great piece in my craft room, I would organize all of my yarn it it. This turn-of-the-century cabinet measures 31" high x 16" wide x 10-1/2" deep (at the base).

Space Age Mod Livingroom Group
I love the color of this Space Age Mod Livingroom Group from vintagelooks.com. This living room set comes in four cool other colors, taupe, black, green and orange. This living room set can easily fit six to eight persons on it, so it would be great for entertaining. This living room group would make a great addition to a loft apartment or any home. This looks like a comfy spot to sit and hang out to read a book or chat with friends over a couple drinks, or just watching one of my favorite movies Austin Powers!!
You can easily transform your room with this beautiful retro furniture. Easily place this living room group to your room and it will add a punch of color. This comes with four sectional pieces and an ottoman/foot rest. I would use a serving tray to set on the ottoman to set glasses, center pieces, or lay a throw rug over it at a diagonal.
