Happy day before Thanksgiving!

Just a reminder, the store will be CLOSED on Thursday, 11/26 but OPEN our normal hours on Friday, 11/27 (10 am to 8 pm) and Saturday, 11/28 (9 am to 4 pm).

Also, with Illinois in its Tier 3 Resurgence Mitigation plan - it means only 35 masked and social distancing customers will be allowed in the store at a time. If you could shop without your kids - that would allow us to have more paying customers at one time. If that's not possible - no worries! 

I'll return with my usual weekly update post on Thursday, 12/03 (as long as I have internet that is! Good grief). 

Until then - please stay safe, dear reader, and always wear your face mask when you're out anywhere! 

P.S. I don't want to freak you out but one month from today is Christmas.

Illinois issues new COVID safety restrictions

 As of Friday (11/20/2020) Illinois begins its Tier 3 Resurgence Mitigation plan. What that means for Jubilee Furniture is only 35 masked and social distancing customers will be allowed in the store at a time. So, if you could possibly shop without your children - that would allow us to have more paying customers at one time (no offense to your kids - we love 'em - but we're trying to continue to make as much money as possible to support the programs and services at Outreach Community Ministries especially during this extremely difficult time when even more individuals, couples and families need our help).

I lost internet mid-post yesterday and so the photos that follow MIGHT NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE! I'm super sorry if you see something you love and it's already been purchased! 






GORGEOUS Stickley buffet - measures: 18" at its deepest (16 1/2" at each end) and is 68" across 
and stands 33" tall. Priced $495. This is a stunning piece!




very nice Flexsteel leather sofa - some minor wear - priced $225




sweetest nativity set I've ever seen! Lladro children's nativity set for $225






fantastic sofa for $125. I wondered why the middle cushion was slightly elevated and when I lifted it up there were all these "tubes" of matching fabric. Beautifully sewn. Scrunch 'em up and put them on a curtain rod for a mini-valance? Fill them with batting for a bunch of long hotdog shaped pillows? Sew one end closed for a sleeping bag for a snake? THE SKIES THE LIMIT on what you could do with 'em! Just a little fun "add on" with this couch purchase! Haha! 





very nice McCreary Modern chair and ottoman for $175. 
Some very minor wear




lovely Vanguard sofa - love the contrasting trim that runs along the bottom of the sofa skirt. 
In very good condition and priced $155




Smithe-Craft single bench seat cushion sofa in very good condition! Priced $125




I LOVE the upholstery on this sleeper sofa! It's in excellent condition - 
sits a little low to the ground (fyi). Priced $85




fun mid-century modern side table with magazine holder. The trim along the side of the table is slightly coming off. Looking at this photo I wonder if it would make a good record player holder and you could put your albums on the rack part? Interesting idea. Priced $75





I'm madly in love with this Nichols & Stone maple table (43 1/2" by 44") with two leaves (each 15" wide), table pads and four chairs. Some minor scratches but this is really a beautiful set! Photos show one of the leaves in the table (so, table would be round if you removed that leaf). Priced $255


nice upholstered bench with underneath shelf (hard to see the shelf in my photo - sorry!). 
Measures: 19" by 50" and is 18" tall. Priced $75





two Stanley brand twin size beds with under-bed storage (four drawers and one open space behind the door). If you were standing at the foot of each of these beds the drawers (and door) would be on the left side on one of the beds and on the right side of the other. Does that make sense? Or if both beds were against the same wall with their headboards against that wall - the storage drawers would be on the OUTSIDE of both of the beds. In very good condition and priced $155 each




there are so many woods I love but I THINK my favorite is maple! LOVE this seven drawer maple dresser with mirror. Some very minor scuffs on the top of the dresser but otherwise in 
excellent condition and priced $195





totally cool antique dressing table with mirror for $195







FOUR piece (one two piece; one corner; one single; one three piece part) Schweiger brand sectional in EXCELLENT condition EXCEPT there's a couple of spots where something heavy crushed the nap of the fabric (see second to last photo). Could you maybe steam that part and it would be fine? I'm not sure. Would that be a great place to put a throw or a pillow? Absolutely! Haha! Though we have the single armless chair by the three piece part - you could have it by the two piece part and then it would look more balance. Priced $425 and this is really a gorgeous sectional 
(the fabric is shades of blues and tan)





wonderful retro Berne Furniture sofa for $125. Original vivid green has faded 
somewhat but otherwise in good condition


I find these IKEA chairs to be super comfortable! Priced $85

A few quick housekeeping things to note:
  • Jubilee Furniture will be CLOSED Thursday, 11/26, for Thanksgiving
  • We'll be open our normal 10 am to 8 pm on Friday, 11/27, and 9 am to 4 pm on Saturday, 11/28
  • There will NOT be a new blog post on Thursday, 11/26

That's it, dear reader! Again, so sorry about not being able to complete this post on Thursday like I usually do!
