It was made out of MDF, not virgin hard wood from the Brazilian rain forest. Got love a MDF desk for 450.Virgin hard wood from the Brazilian rain forest is priceless!!!!!Neither Brazilian or anyone else´s rain forest are supposed to be devastated just to please people. Not anymore.There are lots of wood furniture in second hand shops, one can always be creative.Early this year I bought a 50´s wardrobe to go with a 30`s bed I bought a couple of years ago. Had both beautifully coated in white lacquer (?); got a nice guest bedroom furniture. Still waiting for the right fabric to finish the wardrobe.In the name of future generations forests shall not be exterminated no matter where they are.Thanks for reading. I decided to get my daughter a sewing desk for Christmas from the jolly man. I went by a store I go to frequently that sells sewing machines hoping that she could tell me what store to go to, instead she led me to the most darling little girls desk.
It was white with pink trim and pink knobs. Just adorable! She said, 'Let me see what I can do.'
As she walked away I was just devastated because I was sure she would come back with a price that was $20-40 more than I could spend and I would just have to walk away from it. Well, that didn't happen, because she came back with a price that was HUNDREDS more than I could pay. The desk was $450 with the discount!! Good Lord have mercy it was made out of MDF, not virgin hard wood from the Brazilian rain forest. Thankfully, I could walk away from that desk with no guilt.
Is it just me or do you sometimes feel like you are being taken advantage of because you are addicted?Might I recommend you try goodwill? I got an old teacher's desk for DH, and he loves it. They gave me a deep discount ($150 originally, down to $35!) because they thought it was defective. They didn't know the 'open the center desk to make the others release' trick!:D:thumbup. I also had needed a sewing desk or cabinet for my new Brother embroidery machine. The cheapest I could find was a dark brown laminated table, 6 feet long and about 30' deep. Purchased at Office Max or Staples.The studier tables have legs that fold in, not the kind that has the desk actually fold in the middle.
Then I purchased 2 sets of sturdy plastic drawer sets that goes under the table from Walmart. The drawer sets are clear or translucent with 3 drawers each and do fit under the table side by side.For under 100.00 I got 2 sets of drawers and a heavy duty table.Not bad for now.
