Bedroom Furniture

SM and I have been saving up money for the last three to four years for furniture.  We've moved so often that it didn't make sense to have nice furniture.  (As a side note, we've moved eight times in eight years but stayed in one location for four years...so yes, we've had some short stays).  Anyway, we know we'll have at least one more move since we are currently renting, BUT the time has finally come to get some furniture that will last and hopefully not break during any future move.  Our big major purchase was this bedroom set.  Isn't it beautiful?!  I love it!!!

Just ignore the stuffed animals....or not!  Look at the chest (which I call a dresser).

I wanted to show that we also bought the two side tables (I know, they are kind of hard to see).  The bedroom set isn't too ornate, but I prefer simple and plain.  One reason I don't like to much fluffy-fruffy decoration in the wood is that it collects dust.  Dusting is not a favorite chore of mine.  I'd much rather clean the kitchen.  So, we looked for furniture that would also be easy to take care of as well as well built furniture that should last us our the rest of our lives together.
