ahhhh the Nordstrom Sale is here once again. Sometimes it is hard for us Texans to take advantage of all the wonderful and beautiful items that are on sale, because it can be arduous to imagine wearing a coat when it is 105 degrees outside.

I have had this dresser since I was a young girl. I tend to prefer an antique style over a more modern/contemporary one so I was inspired to reform my dresser.
