Caleb and I decided that we want to buy a "vintage" dresser to put in the nursery. A good, solid piece of furniture that can double as a changing table. I am just looking for a dresser with character that is made of actual wood so that I can repaint it the way I want. Well, my mom found just what we were looking for on Craigslist. (She claims this Website is even better than going to local garage sales!) As luck would have it, the dresser is located in Bolingbrook--even better. Well, I emailed the person selling the dresser and, not more than 36 hours after being posted on Craigslist, I found out the dresser had been sold. Bummer. I guess it is time to go back to the drawing board. Good thing we still have some time to spare!

I am cool grandmom to be, as I speak Craigs List. Thanks for the promo!!!Garage sales are just too labor intensive. Better to sit with a glass of wine and peruse the internet
