Thrift shopping that is...lol. DD was in need of new bedroom furniture, she had truly worked her charm on the existing furniture and outgrown it as well. After checking out various furniture stores, I was just not feeling what was out there - a lot of constructed composite wood, mdf and on top of it, the prices were just outrageous.
So Dh and I did some thrifting, we visited the thrift shop where he'd gotten the furniture for my craftroom and Woo Hooo... for $300 smack-a-roos..
Also, a headboard and nightstands. The wood is just gorgeous - we're thinking its golden oak - it blends with the floors, which are oak, but just love the doors which conceal several draws behind it. Dh gave it a good cleaning and murphy oil soap and presto.
I was truly hoping to get a piece of furniture from the thrift shop for my craftroom. I needed a bookshelf to house my tv and stereo, etc... well dh gave me a Shift from the garage - removed the doors and that was that... so no more furniture for me...lol.
Thank goodness the thrift shop is not in my county, because I would be in there everyday...lol

NICE!!!!!!!!!
I love the dresser and armoire! It's beautiful! I must shop at more thrift stores. I know of many around me. I need a table for my craftroom and I need to start searching this summer.
Thanks for the ideas!
Perfect! I love the Armoir and the cabinet for your sewing room works perfectly! Way Cool!
What a beautiful armoire! And what a deal!!!
I love the thrift shop for that reason. I'm going to get all my next pieces from there & refinish them myself (my other hobby). The old furniture is just made so much better.
