As we got ready to sell our house and leave Denver, we played a game with all of our furniture called “Sell or Store.”

Almost everything went into the “Sell” category (our house buyers were the primary recipients of our Sell furniture), but there were some pieces of furniture that were either sentimental (everything from both sets of grandparents), hard won (hello card catalog) or just too useful/transferable to sell.

This blue dresser, a hand me down from my grandpa’s house and also oh-so-useful, made it onto our “Store” list.

Not only did this little dresser make an appearance at party after party as a dessert table (or Milk Station, or Lemonade Bar, or Hot Cocoa Bar), it was pretty perfect in my office as well.

See you on the other side, sweet little sky blue dresser! I’m coming back for you!
