The dresser was a deal @ what I believe was $800.00 and a the dresser w/ mirror was $850ish...
I picked up the end tables from the West side of Michigan... Paid $400 for the pair of end tables which where professionally refinished by a heywood refinishing company which I had been thinking about buying from but the one's I bought where at least $100-$150 cheaper...
Here's the coffee table I picked up.
These are champaign colored so a little darker that wheat colored but defiantly beautiful. I found the company on e-bay and it was only about a 3 hour drive (one way) but I opted to have them deliver them.
Let me know if you want the link.
Thanks for the Masonite idea...
