Roadside Rescue

On my way to my daughter’s house on Saturday, I saw this in front of a neighbor’s ~ out for the trash.   The pictures are kind of weird because it is laying on a dolly.

I have such great luck finding pieces with no drawers!

I loaded it up and brought it home, much to my hubby’s chagrin, with plans to fix it up and give my daughter first dibs on it or sell it.  I have no room for it here, but I really couldn’t just pass it by.

It looks like they might have been starting to refinish it because one side is natural looking and the other side is this lovely purple.  The fronts of the drawer section pieces are a lot nicer than the one I found, made over, and kept about a year ago.  I won’t have to add decorative trim molding this time.

I’ll be removing the drawer glides and will make these shelves with baskets. 

Here was the last drawer-less wonder I found, in case you are new here or just don’t recall.

Here is what it looked like after its makeover {in our new home}.  You can read about it here.

I need to work on this fast to get it out of here before I have to hear anymore about the “crap” I bring home!  Why can’t I find these things when he’s out of town?
