another great find on the C list


Ahh, yet again, I find another good deal on Craigslist. Brett and I saw this armoire at Nebraska Furniture Mart (I hate NFM but I liked the armorie, minus the light house they show in this picture) a few weeks back. I found the same armorie from a girl who just bought it but wanted a bigger desk, so we got the desk for over half the originally price and it was already put together. Thank you Craigslist for coming through again!!! Now the office is nice and organized and I can close the doors anytime to make that room into a guest bedroom.
Lets see what else I have been searching for:
-large indoor Plants
-Free Weights with a bench
-Nice metal shelves for bathroom closet
-Lamps
-Two leather chair set
- Sectional couch for the basement
- A jig saw
- A swing for the back tree
I am sure I will come up with more. I am obsessed!!!

So what's with the hate for NFM? I would LOVE to have one close by! The closest we have to NFM is IKEA....I'm sick of it!

Andrea said...

WHAT! Sorry, I would trade NFM for IKEA any day!!!! Neither one is very good quality, but IKEA is so much cooler!

Jamie, I have to agree with Andrea on this one. I think I have seen things at NFM that are just as poor quality though ;) I just hate most of the style of everything. IKEA is so hip and young ;)

WHAT???!! Are you implying I'm not hip and young? Guess that's what 3 kiddos do to ya! We got our kitchen table from IKEA and guess what...the chairs are junk. My sister got a way cooler one from NFM for cheaper! I've only been there once, but I really like most of the furniture my fam has gotten there. IKEA's furniture is somewhere between hip and young, and just cheap-looking, but hey that's my opinion! BTW, I love the table and chairs you got, and your house looks adorable!

Jamie,
I think if we lived near an IKEA we might think the same thing but my buddy Andrea and I kinda love to hit IKEA when we are near one ;)

Jamie Bahr said...

I live about 15 minutes from one so if you are looking for an excuse to get to IKEA let me know...you are welcome to come visit;)

vwiese said...

Hey sister, we might have to do that, where do you live again?
We were planning a trip for maybe Oct to do an IKEA trip.

We live in Livonia, MI (Metro Detroit). There is an IKEA in Canton, about 15 mins from here.
