Over Easter weekend we were fortunate enough to pick up an extra piece of furniture from my grandparent’s old farm house. In it’s first life, this piece was a dresser with an attached mirror. Phillip and I were able to remove the mirror from the dresser and fit it in my car with just inches to spare!

Now I have to say, over the past year I’ve fallen in love with mid-century furniture, I mean who could resist these crisp, clean lines?

These to-die-for recessed handles??

And these curvy cone-shaped legs?

This dresser now has a new life in my dining room as sideboard/buffet next to my bar cart and I couldn’t be happier!

It rests, neatly tucked behind our counter-height dining room table.

Right now I’m dreaming of 2 long floating shelves to hang above it like this one from Ikea. . .

So what do you think? Do you have a specific style of furniture that just makes your heart swoon?
