Loving me some Craigslist


I've been waiting almost 10 years for nightstands. In Peru I mounted a plastic shelf to the wall, which was adequate, but I finally bought nightstands that are the perfect height for my overly tall bed, and I love them! They're vintage, beautifully shaped, and ready to be sanded and painted to my heart's content, after which I will adorn them with beautiful hardware. I mean, one can splurge a little when there are only 2, don't you think? Now, if you look closely, and you're very clever, you'll be able to tell what they really are (not nightstands!)
Did you guess it? They're sewing machines! Oh, I'm a happy boy.

I love to use things like that for things they are not meant to be! Have fun with them! I, too, love craigslist. Bought a lovely old dresser with a mirror on top for our exchange student to use for $25. Makes me happy, too.
