My friend Nancy has some kind of internal radar for finding interesting things left out for trash pick up. A few weeks back, she spotted a beat up, but structurally sound, piano bench while we were out walking the dogs. She didn't need it, but I had a vision for it.
I took it home and spray-painted it white. I've had no decorations out on the porch since Christmas, so I assembled the vignette you see here. I spent no money. The baskets were thrift shopped. The little blackboard says, "There's No Place Like Home."
I've been fascinated with the labeling I've seen a lot of my block girls doing and took a stab at it with my "Deliveries" tag. I get a lot of things, like old books and items from catalogs, by mail. The basket is for my mailman to leave my parcels in. The old-fasshioned font was downloaded from a free website and printed out on cardstock.
I had a lot of fun with this.
I'm participating in Show and Tell Friday
