It's mine! {cue evil laughter} I managed to get to the Salvation Army on Monday and bought the dresser. Plus I lucked out because they give you 3 days to pick it up. Most thrift stores give no more than 24 hours and that's if they give you any time at all. I'll have Salvation Army in my mind more often in regards to furniture buying now. My mother provided the lift to go get it. A lovely employee helped the Hubs load it, which was another added bonus since I was told that the people who help load leave at 3:30 and we picked it up after 6pm.
When we got home the Hubs discovered that we just bought a piece of Stanley furniture. Yay! for thrifting quality merchandise.
The dresser is now taking up residence in my bedroom and performing double duty as a nightstand. It's too big for a nightstand but until I rearrange that's where it'll live. I do love it though, especially since previously my undergarments were living in a plastic (ugh!). So please excuse all the extra stuff on the top because everything has yet to be situated.
Now if I can just get around to refinishing it......
I'm Alexis, a somewhat accidental housewife. Shopping is one of my great loves. Especially if I can do it cheaply...really cheaply. Thrift shops, sales and clearance, oh my! I especially love to find things for my home. Email me at alexissawtelle[at]gmail.com
