So, Saturday passed with no extraordinary cataclysmic event. Not to worry, Harold Camping has since apologized and is back with a new prediction: Doomsday is actually October 21st! Instead of giving away all of my possessions for the pending rapture, I’m blowing all my money on decorating my house. Before the end of the world comes this fall, I’m spending my cash on:
Game on! A Black Hawk Nickel Slot Machine from the 30s.
Not technically for my house, but this
early 20th century aventurine and opal glass necklacewould look pretty great on me.
A $35,000 17th century bronze Shiva. Why not?
If there were multiple of these BMW Isetta Child Pedal Cars,
I’d take them all.
Are you allowed to take anything with you on your ascent to heaven? If so, I’d like to request that this Goyard steamer trunkpacked with my favorite outfits and accessories go with me.
Maybe this antique French dragon mirror will fit in the Goyard trunk?
I might need this in heaven.
I prefer to spend my last days on earth playing with trains and listening to the Nutcracker Suite that plays on this antique French Gothic Revival bronze music clock with mechanical trains.
While sitting in this fabulous French polka dot upholstered armchair.
Or maybe this 1930s cowhide dental chair? Hey, the world is ending! Might as well get both.
Finally, I’ll blow my last wad of savings on this $98,000 Flemish Baroque tortoiseshell cabinet.
