Salvage Scores

I recently visited Country Boy Antiques, in Norfolk VA, and scored some great finds.

I already have an idea for an assemblage art piece using one of the door plates. The glass bottle has the words baking powder engraved on it. I'm soaking the bottle in a solution of hydrogen peroxide, baking soda and water. It may take a few soakings to get the bottle clean.

Library File Drawers

I recently won two Oak Library File Drawers, with brass pulls, on eBay and I already received them. I have special feelings for the Buffalo (NY) library of my youth, where I spent many hours, so I was happy to acquire some vintage Library Drawers.

I plan on using one of them to hold my collaged and watercolor post cards. I'll use the other one to hold containers in the bathroom.

I think I may polish them to bring out the wood grain.
