All her sewing things are in a very masculine and broken toolbox, mine are in a tin and we have inherited my Grandmothers wooden sewing box too, along with a large tin of buttons (nothing was ever wasted). Little sister has now started sewing dolls clothes and on top of the mountain of shoe boxes is now a cardboard box that she made into a wardrobe.<br /><br />Seeing your lovely wooden boxes all organised I am determined to find some nice ones too and a little chest of drawers to keep everything all tidy.

I have always been intrigued by the portable writing desks in old novels, with cubbyholes for everything, and a tray that folds out to write your letter on. Katy bought one for Elsie for Christmas in What Katy Did. I would maybe even write a letter if I had such a wonderful contraption. Maybe.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17803297366197086152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4838234360213313454.post-11929215368375204272012-05-31T02:11:23.428+10:002012-05-31T02:11:23.428+10:001.

Then I remember why I don't mind the dark so much.<br /><br />2. I love boxes! And old wooden boxes are the best. I've been on the prowl for an old wooden box to put my letter writing materials (stationery, postcards, stamps, etc.) in, but so far not much luck. Your sewing box is beautiful<br /><br />francesLeft-Handed Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15014518128739580267noreply@blogger.com
