Look at this great little chest of drawers. Jeff and I were driving in a neighborhood near our home and I saw this chest out by the trash can with a FREE sign taped to it. Seriously, of course I shout to my husband stop we have to pick up that chest. His response is "We are not stopping and picking that up in the light of day. You can wait until it is dark." Clearly with the cute factor of the chest involved here I knew that it would not be there when it got dark. I dropped Jeff off at the house that we were going to and went back and loaded up the little chest in broad daylight. I am just not that proud when it comes to a cute chest just waiting for me for FREE, hello! I think is it fine just like it is and it is a bit wobbly, but I am thinking a new coat of paint and some creative fixing to one of the feet in back it will go from trash to a fabulous treasure. I will post the makeover soon. Hmmm, what color should it be?
Silk Flowers: really amazing, thanks

That IS cute Judy! I think you should paint it a pale green with white, yellow or pink flowers. :) Can't wait to see the finished product! :)
