White Wednesday

 This is an old alphabet chart 
on top of an old school desk...
 a turquoise desk...inside...and on legs.
here is the top of it.....
 Some white garden goodies.
 This is an old refridgerator that had been 
converted to a machinists tool chest.
Hand made by "grandpa" years ago.
He made all the drawers, and kept it meticulously clean.
I had it s a display piece in my store for 2 years...
at least...and have now parted with it.
It has a new home in one of my friend's places....
and a wonderful picture from an old medical book I found.
I'm joining White Wednesday...late..
White Wednesday
Blessings everyone, and have a great weekend.
