For a long time, I've been looking for an old wooden toolbox to fill with seasonal sundries for the center of my dining table. Little did I know, I wasn't looking for an "old wooden toolbox", I was looking for an "old carpenter's box". The lady that taught me this lesson wasn't the kindest of teachers. As a matter of fact, I found what I wanted at her shop, but because she WAS NOT filled with the holiday spirit I decided I'd go home and make it myself! And then I could call it whatever I wanted to call it!
But wait, in her competitor's window, could it be?
Yes, it was!
Perfect!
Take a look.
( I was so excited that I forgot to take a picture without the stuff! )
It does have compartments that will look kind of cool filled with candles after Christmas.
The other side...
... and the best part of the whole thing is that it has
these sweet metal trim pieces.
What are these?
Can you see them on the edges?
Can you tell I'm infatuated with this somethin'-somethin' I'd never seen before?
Consider yourself educated on the whole "carpenter's box" issue.
Blessings- B
