The Secret in our House...LOL

As silly as this sounds one of my dreams in life was to have a king size bed, well when we bought our home over 5 years ago, my husband bought me a new bedroom suite. YES, a KING size bed...woohoo. The first one we bought was too big when they delivered it, the bed was so tall it wouldn't fit up our stairwell so we had to send it back..I was so sad. So off to the store we went to find a different one. I don't know how I missed this one but when I saw it I fell in love with it. Its my favorite thing in the house besides my husband and kids..LOL!!

After 6 weeks of frustration waiting on it to be delivered and sleeping on a mattress in the floor...it finally arrived, I was so excited and pleased! BUT...a few days later I noticed the beautiful molding around the top of the chest was really loose, the more I shook it and messed with it the looser it felt so I decided to just leave it alone, I was NOT returning it to wait another 6 weeks to have it replaced. Every time I would clean it I would be nervous and very cautious with the molding, I did not want it to fall off!!! LOL

Remember, that was 5 years ago, well today my husband noticed it was loose for the first time....I thought I mentioned it, but I guess not..anyway, he decided to take a look at it and then I heard the words "hey honey..did you know this was a drawer?"..WHAT???? A drawer!!!!! Yes it was never a "loose piece of molding" it was a drawer that was slightly open! LOL So now I love it even more, not only do I have an awesome story to go with it I gained an awesome secret drawer!! LOL and yes I do feel a little stupid that I never bothered to even pull on it!! HAHAHAHA!!!!!

Here are some pics of my favorite piece of furniture in our home now!!!!
