I have been hunting

for a dresser, for Kimberly's room, that I can alter. (I altered three pieces that were my dads, and had seen better days, and they came out cool). So this morning, Dana told me he wanted to go yard saling. (A pastime, that I loathe), but that is another story in and of its self. So anyhow, while driving down the road, we happen to pass one, that had a dresser sitting on the front yard. We stop, and I ask the lady how much. She tells me 5.00. SOLD! (oh, eating crow here) but I am none the less, excited for my find. It is structurally sound, and the one drawer needs the dove tails put back into place, but it works. So, it is sitting on my deck, ad we speak, freshly sanded, and ready for paint. Just not sure how I want to paint it yet. (OOOOOOHHHHHH< the possibilities)... I will, when I am finished, post before and after pick. Perhaps I will have to rethink the whole yard sale thing....

Oh Steph - yard sales can be so addictive! You just have to make sure you don't end up buying crap just because it's a good deal. You can come yard sale through my house any day! I'm trying to clean it out!!! You can really find good stuff though - let's see those pictures of the dresser!!!
