This is the story of the search for a vanity. The only thing that I really wanted for Christmas was a vanity. I saw one that I liked at Bed, Bath, and Beyond that I kind of liked, but wasn't in love with. When we went back to look at it they were sold out, oh well guess it wasn't meant to be. Then we went to Schewels on Black Friday hoping to find one. The lady there said they didn't have any, but had ordered some that week. She couldn't show us a picture of one, but told us what it looked like and it had three big drawers on both sides and cost about $119. That sounded like a good deal, so we stopped looking thinking that we had found the one. Well when they came in the vanity wasn't big at all and only had one tiny drawer in the middle, NOT what we were told at all. Oh well, back on the search.....we searched everyone in town and online but nothing like I wanted for a decent price. We finally went to an antique store and walking up I noticed a white vanity sitting outside it was in bad shape, it was warped and the top was coming off, but to me it had potential!! We went inside and looked around, but nothing. On the way out I mentioned to Jody about him fixing it up and he said he thought it was in too far gone. I still thought differently, I was optimistic and had a lot of faith in my husband. I finally talked him into asking the guy how much he wanted for it. The guy said "That old thing, you can have it!". I was thrilled, at least we wouldn't be out anything if he couldn't fix it. Later that day Jody came back to get it and worked on it for about a week. He stripped all the white paint off, replaced the sides and the back and repaired the drawers. Then we picked out a new paint color and a mirror that he attached on to it. And today, my wonderful hubby unveiled the final product!! I loved it, it was even better than I had pictured!! I am thankful that God gave me such a wonderful husband, he did a beautiful job!
It is PERFECT!!
I love the design in the middle!
