Show and Tell

Today, I share with you several of the boxes in my house. This first one is an old bottle carrier of some kind. It has been stained over, but if you catch the print in the right light, I think it says "Jack's Beverages" on the front.
See the dividers? Cool box.
Next, I think the top box came from kinfolk. But, I don't remember who. Mom? A little help if you are reading this. The bottom one...well, read the comments...Mom fills in the blanks on my waning memory. Grandma painted it this antique red color. Wouldn't have been my color of choice. But, changing it would involve work. And I hate the W word.

This next blanket box is the replacement piece for Cousin Janelle's old hope chest. Primitive. Clean lines. I like it! And it is stuffed with all my old quilts.

And now. Check out this mother of all mothers. See how big it is? It's a chippy blue color. I wax this baby and it is just awesome. More linens are stored in here. How many linens can one woman have? Well, I have a lot. For sure.
See the top? Waxed, it is just lovely.
Now. That was the SHOW portion of this post. It is now TELL time. You tell me...See these stand thingies? I have collected them, waiting for my creative-genius-self to figure out something to do with them. Any suggestions? I've done hats. A puppet. Not sure a wreath would balance on top. Maybe you could just suggest a holiday idea. hmmmmmm
Happy Sunday!
