trouble…but worth it!!! =)
this is a nine drawer dresser – cherry – beautiful hardware – cream and distressed – drawers slide perfectly – really solid well made piece – fun carved detail all along the top edge – little metal caps on the two front legs – odd that such a wonderful piece of furniture almost broke up my marriage, huh? =)
so i was out of town when i found this (always on the lookout for a cool piece!) and to be perfectly honest…i found maybe a couple of other pieces too….but that’s not really the point too much. i (mistakenly) felt quite certain that it would all fit in the back of my van. i mean, after all, the seats were all out and i had no children with me. so i excitedly pay, thus locking myself into a nonreturnable situation cause – i mean, after all, who would want to return a piece this awesome??? and then i drag my husband in (who based on my giddy excitement, my tendency to “gallop” towards a good piece, and my willingness to spend time pulling out drawers and checking things (those of you who have stuck with me for a while need to get a life! HA! only kidding…those of you who have been around remember that i learned that lesson with the “oops dresser” – hi mandy!) so based on what he feels could be possibly embarrasing behavior, my man will sometimes wait in the van until i have finished my shopping) so i drag him in… and before he can even praise me for the beautiful quality pieces i have snagged, he says something to the effect of “are you insane? what makes you think this will all fit in the van? have you lost your mind??” (and i think to myself….well i have all that room in the front seat that YOU usually take up since i’m LEAVING YOU HERE! but being the model of restraint that i am, i did not verbalize that – but i DID do the “dagger eye” look!) THEN he gives me a little speech about planning and measuring and charging triple when i sell it to compensate for all the gas money….blah blah blah… so i tell him i will be wating in the van – get the daggum furniture loaded up – and do it fast – and i stomped off. (now i’ll be the first to admit that it’s hard to do an effective angry stomp in tennis shoes, but i have found that it’s more in the “posture” of the stomp… which i have perfected.) i assume it was seeing “the stomp” that pulled him back to reality and made him realize the error of his ways, cause next thing i know, he is in the van beside me telling me how beautiful the pieces are and that has he looked at them, and that he realizes that i truly had no choice but to purchase them, and they are worth as many trips back to neverland as it will take. i promptly forgave him because i am just that righteous and now things are lovely again. i have the furniture…i have my man…the only thing i need to live happily ever after is for someone to purchase this dresser! heehee
