Box of treasures



Looking for a handy home for the squillions of business cards I've picked up at Trade fairs and round and about I happened upon a box of bits and bobs (we all have those right?).  A little rub down and a dash of paint and it will be just the ticket.

Found some treasure amongst the rubble.  Tiny pebbles pretty as gem stones - even more precious as they were gathered by my mum.  3 smashing watch faces, wonder if they still work. Could be refashioned as jewellery.  And the sweetest, soft leather wallet that holds a dinky brush. A tactile connection to grandad. Wonder what it was used for? 




Decided some things are too precious to be tucked away.  Now I'm off to sand that box..
