I&#8217;ve been wanting to find my daughter a ceder chest to uses as a &#8220;hope chest&#8221; since she will soon be leaving home and moving out of state. To be honest, this is sort of tearing me apart, but I did find a Lane cedar chest that she can be proud to have. I got the man down by bartering, from 100.00 to 45.00.<\/p>\n<p>This chest does have some dings and a bit of scratches in it, but it is old. I&#8217;m pretty certain it is an antique, but will have to check with a friend who deals with these kind of things. I&#8217;m sure it isn&#8217;t worth more than what I paid for it, but I&#8217;m happy with it, and know my daughter will be, after I clean it up some and use some natural scratch cover on it. Now I can start stocking it!! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Because of this season, I love all of the yard sales, garage sales and the barn sales.
