Mid century modern dresser

I've wanted a mid century modern dresser for years...problem is, they are usually costly and to find just the right one can be tricky. My entry way has had a desk there which was given to me since we moved in to our home. It's been in rough shape and when I came across this antique little gem on craigslist for a steal I decided it was time.
What sold Joe on getting this was the amount of storage that I gain. We are bursting at the seams with kids artwork, puzzles, books & just stuff that accumulates when you have 3 kids. This is a great piece to have if you are needing more storage, keeps breakables out of reach & can be moved to a bedroom if I ever need want something different.
I'm kind of wanting to paint either the drawers or the top and sides white, but at the moment I don't mind it. I think if my dining table was white I could handle the darkness of the wood better. My table has been a thorn in my side since it was given to me. It's practical, I just hate it! Hoping down the road to find a round table that can seat 6 which is modern and fresh...I digress. Very happy to have this piece.
Here's a few other photos of mid century dressers which was an inspiration...

Don't be afraid to add a dresser piece in a different part of the house - they always look good & are truly functional.
