Are you secretly a 70 year old woman?
No. I just like the patterns, colors, and styles of the era I grew up in.
You may hate it, but I'd totally decorate a room in pumpkin orange, dark green, and brown if I had the money and space.
avocado green kitchens and harvest gold shag carpets!
Yes Sir, absolutely hideous.
I don't really consider room deco much, so I doubt I'd hate it. Is the stuff functional? Then its fine.
Yes, everything I buy at a show like this is either ready to use, or is restorable/parts for something else I have.
I bought a floor lamp at the same show. It had been electrically butchered, but there are plenty of places selling period-accurate electrical goods that will fit and will bring it back to life. I usually patronize Grand Brass, they have a lot of what you'd need for antique lighting projects.
