Am looking for either a slim wardrobe (which could be easily converted to have shelves in them and ideally with a drawer or two at the bottom) or a tall chest of drawers for the bedroom (after a previous thread I did on here a few days ago about built in furniture which we have decided against).
Have looked at homebase/ikea etc and they have stuff we could buy and afford, but I just sob a bit at the whole chipboard/rickety quality (went into homebase today and wasn't impressed). Maybe I'm pitching too high for our price tag . Looked on gumtree and ebay but nothing suitable for the right size (has to be up to 87cm wide) near us. Have also looked on local facebook selling groups. I like antique stuff but don't want anything dark wood as the room is light wood otherwise .
So, does anyone have any ideas where to go? I don't really know about this stuff so have just been looking online at obvious places. I'd say as cheap as we can get for as good as we can get . Maybe expecting to pay around £200 - £300 but could pay a bit more if it was especially nice. I realise this isn't a huge budget but am hoping we can get something decent with it. I'm imagining a beautiful French Armoire with glass on the front and a single opening door, but I don't think for the price we will manage that (and all the ones I can find are too wide).
I know mn know of great online places i have never heard of before so hoping you can help me out
