Not the best picture but you can get a general idea. Amazing what $30 can do, huh? :-)

Gotta love craigslist!

Who knew! Craigslist isn't only for hookers! ~LOL~

:-) Craigslist is really becoming how ebay use to be - you can find anything and cheaply. So far, I've totally refurnished my house for $95 - $30 for the cabinet, $45 for the two wingback chairs, and $20 for the loveseat I got on ebay. In all that, there was only one crazy I communicated with.

She was selling a cabinet for $50 only a couple of miles down the road. The lady told I could come pick it up only to say later that someone else wanted it and how much was I really willing to pay. Sorry, but this ain't ebay. I told her to let the other guy have it only to get the reply "Well, I haven't promised it to anyone and we're all sick with the stomach flu here." And that should make me want it more, how?

I'm very glad I didn't go with here and ended up talking to this lady instead.

I am deeply envious of your beautiful hardwood floors.

Thank you! That's the good thing of having an old home- the only room without hardwood floors is the addition (sewing room). The rest of the house was built based on the 1930's models in the 1950s. The bad thing about having an old home is that it's so small!

OMG - It matches your wood accents. How did you do that??

Pure luck. I just saw wooden china cabinet for $30 and decided I should get it. I was thrilled when I saw it was a smaller one and actually matched my decor perfectly.
