I found a dresser!

starielIt's old. It's black. I really like it.
To illustrate how much I really like it: When I saw it I thought the price tag said $174.95 - and I was still thinking of getting it. In actuality it said $74.95 and the 7 had a little tail on the front. ;)
I say old because it isn't particularly well kept up, so I can't call it antique in good faith. It's at that stage where it's the goth version of Shabby Chic. Plus the fact that someone painted it black at some point. The handles are original though, little ring pulls! And there's very attractive woodwork on the front. Old is good, though, for two reasons. First, it has character and isn't going to be just like someone else's dresser. Second it is sturdy - with wooden drawer bottoms that are not going to pop out of their grooves as soon as I put two pairs of jeans in them.
It's being delivered tomorrow and you can be sure I will post a picture.
