Listed District’s Phenomenal Finds Vol. 22 – “Stowed Away”

Ellen Richardson, a graphic designer and Pleasant Plains resident, recently took her Craigslist hunting skills to the next level with the launch of her blog, Listed District. Listed District offers daily DC Craigslist findings of everything from Mid-Century and Industrial furniture, to bikes and the utterly strange.  Every week Ellen is going to share a roundup of some Phenomenal Finds with PoPville.

Storage. The most important thing in a DC apartment’s life! I know I’m not alone when I say that I never have enough. Today’s Listed District roundup offers up a few finds to help you out with that all too common problem.

Try this 6ft long gorgeous sideboard ($575) if you’re a fan of the traditional, but are still looking for clean lines. Go vintage with a mid century starburst clock ($75), or contemporary with a West Elm dining table ($250).
This simple but elegant shelf unit ($120) has been posted for awhile and could turn out to be a great deal. I’d love to see it stuffed with books and paired with a gold velvet mid century lounger ($100), or a bentwood desk chair ($125).
Clean up your act with a steel tanker desk ($200) – set it up with the classic steel desk chair ($50), or a less expected and maybe a little shocking electric blue vinyl atomic chair ($10).
Happy Hunting!

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
