Memories of Sears

While on a search for something else, I came across a Craigslist ad advertising this bedroom set.

My parents bought me the same one from Sears in 1972!

I LOVED this set. My parents even bought me white carpet with gold flecks (hey...it was the 70s) to match!

My only disappointment is that they would not buy me the canopy bed ("you might hang yoursel by accident" - hello? WTF?) or the vanity table ("what for? You are only 6...you do not wear makeup & mommy fixes your hair!").

This STILL sits in my room at my parents' house. I went through a lot of the drawers while I was there a few weeks ago and boy...there sure are a lot of memories in there.
