Telephone

This was the phone in our hallway. We only had 2 phones in the house, the other one was in my parent's bedroom and was a huge black table top version of this. It wasn't until I was a teenager that my sister and I got small phones for our bedroom, but this phone stayed on the wall.

Typewriter

Dad must have gotten this from work, probably when they were getting rid of them and upgrading. My sister and I kept it in our room on our desk for ages and had lots of fun playing "office" with it.

Tackiest Lamp Ever

This lamp sat on top of our tv for years. I don't think I ever saw it turned on. It's tacky enough as is, but ours was filled with pink and red plastic roses.

Hairdryer

This was my older sister's but we were allowed to use it (she was so generous). I remember sitting on the living room floor with the plastic cap over my head drying my hair. If we were in a hurry we'd just use the hose without the cap.
