Salvaging in Virginia: Gobble, Gobble
We managed to sneak off for a couple of salvage-oriented excursions last week. After several phone calls, we tracked down a wonderful guy named Craig who runs an architectural salvage company out of an old turkey farm in Orange, Virginia.

We managed to sneak off for a couple of salvage-oriented excursions last week. After several phone calls, we tracked down a wonderful guy named Craig who runs an architectural salvage company out of an old turkey farm in Orange, Virginia. He as a full range of items (doors, windows, etc.), though we were particularly impressed with his collection of wooden mantel pieces. We picked up some lovely old hinges–he’s got bags and bags full. The company also specializes on moving and restoring historic homes, but more on that tomorrow.

We hear you. Just not enough hours in the day…We will pull all these resoures together in one place sometime soon.
I read your blog every day and enjoy it. I don’t have a brownstone or intend on ever getting one, but find it interesting and I do have an old weekend house that we might renovate one day. Which made me think how will I ever find these resources again if I need them. You don’t seem to have any kind of tracking or categorizing system to your entries. It would be great if you kept a list somewhere of all the resources. I know you have one on your reno blog, but Moon River Chattel is not there I noticed and I’m sure many others like this. Cheers.
Looks cool
