Our Memorial Day weekend was divided between lounging around doing nothing and frantically working on apartment-related projects. One of our favorite errands was picking up these fabulous vintage Bassett dressers that we found on Craigslist...

At $50 for the pair of wonderful walnut dressers, we couldn’t pass them up. Both need a little TLC but are in excellent condition for their age. Of course, we are now relying on Craigslist to help us get rid of the engineered-wood dresser that had been living in the room, but hope springs eternal…

I also looked at these dressers. Although they were inexpensive and a nice design they required a bit too much work for me. Good luck to you!

Is there going to be a DC scavenger?

I got a vintage Bassett chest of drawers on DC Craigslist also, but you definitely got a steal for both of them for $50. Now I'm just looking for some nightstands.

Hey-- since we're asking for ATDC features, what I could use is a DC Open Thread so I can ask about local shops and contractors!
