before- old dresser

after- new dresser!

wow do i have a lot of catch-up posts to make!  we got this dresser a long time ago, because we needed more drawer space and a nicer piece of furniture.  my old dresser had a beautiful shape figure but was in terrible shape- the drawers didn't slide and the top was cracked and destroyed.  i was never going to get around to putting work into it, so my good friend jane and i went to the goodwill in timonium and found this beauty.  the shape is not quite as alluring as the old dresser, but it has much more space, gorgeous wood with a beautiful finish and inlaid carving, and even better- the drawers slide! only problem- i can barely see in the mirror now haha
