This was a gift to me - actually TWO gifts to me - from people who knew I love 'the old, restored and reusable in new form' ....
A dear friend of mine who has since died of cancer rewarded me with this wall piece from her antique shop. It's an old 'delicate fabric' washboard made to serve as a cupboard door and attached by hinges to a small homemade shelving unit. I hung it on my kitchen wall, and I keep my vitamins and such in this piece. I love it for its uniqueness and present it here as another great idea for old washboard uses. I think it was a GRAND and very creative idea.
The other item on my wall is an antique match box. It's just there because it looks pretty and hangs in its original form. When I lived in WY, a gal I came to know intimately as a very lovely friend, had it hanging on her wall. She had inherited it from her mother, and her mother's mother before her. I admired it as a lovely piece. At Christmas time, she wrapped it and presented it to me as a Christmas gift. I cried!! I thought that was one of the nicest things anyone had ever done for me.
ENJOY ...........
