Thrift Store Furniture Finds

 I have been working on redoing our guest bedroom.  This duvet is what I am designing the entire room around.  I really wanted to find some classic furniture with lots of character and pretty lines to accompany it.  Where else would I go to find what I am looking for at a bargain?  Thrift stores of course!

I purchased this piece below to use as a night stand from a local thrift store, Deseret Industries for $10!! It was an antique sewing table that was in GREAT condition. I painted it Rustoleum Heirloom White and kept the original hardware on it.

 Then, I came across this baby below at the same store a few weeks later, and talked them down from $30 to $20.  After all, the drawer is obviously BROKEN.  My husband thought I was crazy and definitely thought it had seen it's last days.  But I had a vision, and was determined to give it a new life! To fix it I removed the drawer front, then headed to Lowes to find the same thickness of board and had them cut it down to match the dimensions I needed.  I also painted this piece in Heirloom White and kept the original hardware on it.  Aren't those drawer pulls awesome!?

I can't wait to show you the rest of the room and final "redo"
