In this episode of our podcast, Steve and I discuss how we repurposed an antique dresser into a bathroom vanity. We share the steps we took, the materials we used, and the challenges we faced along the way.
We also offer tips for anyone who wants to try this project themselves. This project is a great way to give an old piece of furniture new life. It's also a more affordable option than buying a new vanity. And, it's a lot of fun to do!

Hey everyone!
We're here to chat about thrift shopping. We're gonna talk about pieces we wish we would have purchased but for whatever reason we didn't!
We'll also chat about the deciding factors of whether or not we purchase a piece while out thrift shopping. We consider prices, quality, and how we could use the piece in our home.
That led us into a discussion about pieces that we bought for re-sell and thought those pieces would sell but didn't.
So come join us for our fun conversation! We'll be talking about all things thrift shopping, and we'd love to hear your stories too.
What's the best thrift store find you've ever had?
Have you ever bought something for re-sell that didn't sell?
What are your deciding factors when thrift shopping?
We can't wait to chat with you!
