Check out this awesome blog - M Designs.  I have been reading design blogs like crazy and I am seeing a definite trend in salvaged furniture.  Hooray!  I love that less traditional fabric is being used in upholstered pieces and unlikely pieces of history are used to make functional furniture.

This website is a fantastic example of the amazing things that are being done! 

I also found this artist/furniture maker whose work is the bomb...literally.
