I've even been substituting boxes for pieces of furniture.
I've been searching for a new bedside table for a couple of weeks now. I've been to three different furniture shops and only found one bedside table that I actually liked. Then there was a slight problem, as the bedside table was part of a set. To split the set, they wanted to charge $350 for one bedside table...eeeeek!
But then yesterday, I headed out, and the op-shop gods were smiling as I found this little beauty at the Salvos for $15.
It needs a little TLC.... but isn't it lovely!

I can already picture the beauty she'll become!
cam, what a find
i was looking for something just like this for lo's room, but in the end i gave up & went to ikea!
It sure is lovely! Don't forget to rub a candle along the runners to make the drawers slide nicely.
for $15 that is a great deal! :D
You have the best op shop luck I have ever seen.
Excellent find Cam, well done you.... I can't wait to see it transformed.
Wow, gorgeous. I have hit your side of town again, found Salvos at Hoppers Crossing today, OMG! Awesome.
I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Laughing! My bedside table for the past three years has been a box (as yet unpacked!) I cover it with one of my many thrifted tablecloths to suit my mood. Yours is lovely and will love being tarted up I am sure.
I think there could be some lovely wood, or perhaps veneer, under that white paint. If it's pine, a sanding (leaving some of the white paint on) and some varnish would have it looking very 'shabby chic' darling.
I love the handles - you'd pay $15 alone for those else where! :)
yeah, you lucky gal! what a perfect little table. i'll be waiting to see how you spruce it up!
Good score, are you going to just tidy it up or transform it?
What a find! And ohhh I can see you really making this one a little beauty....
just gorgeous Cam! you'll have lots of fun with that!
Great find- can't wait to see it after the touch-up.

very shabby chic – well spotted! We've just done the rounds of chuck out day as we drove to do the groceries – alas our car wasn't big enough tp bring home some of the stuff we spotted!
Nice find!
Yes, very nice! And the price cannot be beat!
