Because of our weekly disappearing act, it's not unusual to receive a call or two each week asking where we're located. Our address is 610 E. North Ave. Carol Stream, IL 60188. We're located in the Wheaton Christian Center Church building which is on the southeast corner of North Ave. and Schmale Road. The church purchased an old K-Mart - so you're looking for a large flat roofed building which is set back from North Ave. by a huge parking lot (which is filled with potholes - so drive carefully). All helpful information but if you were driving by on any day other than Friday or Saturday - there are no signs for Jubilee Furniture. None, except for the white lettering on our front doors. "But Susan," you're thinking, "I may not be a marketing expert, but everyone knows signs are key to helping people know about you." And you're absolutely correct. However, Carol Stream has an extremely strict sign law which only allows us to put signs out on day-of-sale. Being the law abiding citizens we are - we carefully put out three yellow signs along North Ave. Friday when we open at 1:00 p.m. , take them down Friday when we close at 8:00 p.m., put them up again on Saturday when we open at 9:00 a.m. and take them down again on Saturday when we close at 4:00 p.m. Did you track with all that put up/take down? Whew. We also have a sign which we attach to a column by our front doors trying to steer you to the correct entrance.
Jubileeeee, Jubileeeee, Blooming under sable skies. Jubileeeee, Jubileeeee, There my heart forever lies!
the heap of yellow on the floor are the three signs which we put out along North Ave. and the white sign is the one we put by the front doors
you know how we often say - you never know what you might find at Jubilee Furniture? - well it's never been truer. As people are moving and downsizing and all that - we often receive donations of some unique things like this gorgeous tapestry. Ginger thinks it's French and she marked it $125.
this beautiful carved table with inlaid wood on the top is another example of some of the unusual pieces we get in and it's priced $100
these two retro pieces have curved front and I love the hardware - the dresser (long, low piece) is priced $75 and the chest of drawers $95
maple dresser for $65
I love, love, love this three piece vintage sectional which is in perfect condition. See the clean, low lines and the muted floral of browns and tans? Price? $145
upholstered side chair for $60
This End Up sofa for $65 (and there's another one which looks just like it - some of the cushions are faded)
here's a photo as you look over dining room land. Remember when there wasn't much of a selection? Well not no more! What's interesting though is there aren't a lot of sets in the store (table with chairs that match exactly) - but lots of tables and lots of chairs to choose from - know what I mean?
here's a beautiful set though - table, one leaf and four chairs for $185
this table needs a good cleaning and it comes only with three chairs but it's a good deal at $75 for all four pieces
this is a gorgeous set with a slate top which is very similar to another piece we had in about 4 or 5 weeks ago. This table comes with six chairs and is priced $395 (warning - the table top is heavy)
wonderful desk for $75
plaid sleeper sofa for $40
quality side chair for $35 (can't remember why I priced it so low - needs to be reupholstered?)
GORGEOUS Mastercraft china cabinet for $225
beautiful love seat for $125
another beautiful love seat in perfect condition for $135 (it's green and black)
I love the square design on the side of these two pieces - sofa table is priced $45 (or is it some type of cart - because it's on wheels?); coffee table for $40
cool wicker desk for $95
here's an example of a table and chairs which did not come in together and technically do not "match" - but don't they look great together? For all four chairs the price is $80 and the table is $50
And that, dear reader, is all I have for you today! If you stop in the store tomorrow and wonder where I am - wonder no more! - I'll be at my husband's graduation where he's receiving his masters in human services counseling! How cool is that?! Yay Michael!
Let the world grow cold around us, Let the heavens cry above! Jubileeeee, Jubileeeee, In thy valley there'll be love!
God's grace and peace to you!
