Furniture Shopping

So, I need a new dresser.
I've been looking around for a long time.
I know what I want.
I want the dresser my mother has in her
second bedroom.
It's a fantastic old dresser.
She has the ability to find GREAT things
at antique shops, garage sales, etc.
She sees things for what they COULD be.
I see them for what they are
or
what I think they are.
I'm very small minded that way.

Anyway...
I decided to take a look on Craigslist.
Why not, right?

Did you know you could have
ALL THIS for $1!!!




What a bargain.

This, however was my favorite.
It was listed as
ELEGANT DRESSER, MINT CONDITION
Now, who wouldn't click on that.
Well, I did and this picture popped up:

AAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!
I honestly shuddered when I saw it.

I'm finished with Craigslist.
I'm just going to wait for my
parents to go away for the weekend
then I'll sneak in and steal the dresser.
She'll never know.

LOL. Yeah, Craigslist is pretty hit or miss with way more misses than hits.

I do have to say that bottom dresser has potential (just seeing it from the picture.) Take that hideous mirror off. Swap out the handles for something cool. Paint it black. Viola. Cool dresser for very cheap.
