a friend for maude

it only took us 4.5 months to find one i liked, but i am proud to say that we are now a two-dresser family. yes, that's right...i no longer need to store my underwear in the pantry.

i suppose we could have picked something up sooner. but have you noticed all the...crap....that's for sale these days? i swear i couldn't find one new dresser i liked that was actually made out of real wood. and i'm sorry, but i just cant find it in my heart to shell out hundreds of dollars for piece of furniture with a cardboard back. can't do it.

so we searched the internets. we searched thrift stores. and finally i came across a blog, Reform Objects, and i almost fell out of my chair because i wanted everything listed on the site.

the woman behind Reform Objects hunts for vintage finds and one of a kind pieces, fixes them up, and sells them (at very reasonable prices) via her blog. she basically has my dream job, except i want to find and sell clothes instead of furniture (less heavy lifting. ha!).

stuff goes FAST on the blog. after trying to buy a couple of drool-worthy mid century dressers that sold just hours after they were posted, the seller promised she would email me first the next time she has a dresser for sale. (so nice, right?) i finally snagged this bad boy...

...and the seller gave me a discount AND she delivered for just ten dollars. (amazing! i want to be her BFF.)

now if only i had the motivation to actually put my clothes away, we'd be truly living the dream. :)

question for my fellow bloggers...

does anyone know how i can make my pictures appear bigger in blogger? my pictures and collages always look big and pretty in Picasa, but as soon as I upload them to blogger they shrink.

halp!

if you have any tips and tricks, please let me know! i would totally appreciate it. (because big is beautiful, y'all)

"peas in an ant farm" is also the name of my future husband's (he's my husband...from the FUTURE!) blog. he writes less about nervous breakdowns and junk food than i do, but you should read his blog anyway.
