Have You Heard About Betty?

When we mad our move to the new pad, we did some cleaning out. And not just small petty stuff, like we left our bedroom furniture behind! (Minus the bed) My heart has been fluttering over a bedroom set at IKEA for some time now and I thought if we got rid of what we had, that would make work that much harder at getting what I wanted. Thus developed the IKEA FUND CAN. Well, yesterday I was Craigslist stalking and came across the dresser we've (I've) had our (my) eyes on. As a side note, Vance could live quite happily out of a cardboard box. Me, not so much! The dresser was going for $80.00 cheaper than the IKEA price and BONUS, it was already put together. I tried a little haggling, but someone had already beat me to the punch. I quickly offered $10.00 more than my competition and guaranteed a same day pick-up. Determination people! So, today, I introduce you to the newest member of our family...Betty. Isn't she pretty and at a whopping $100.00 cheaper than the store price, I couldn't be happier. :)


And here is Betty doing her thing...


She fits right in, rabbit ears and all! Now to seek out her little siblings...the nightstands. Slowly, but surely my Master Bedroom Dream is coming along.
