A little rubbed and age worn, but what a find! Logo on each end too.

Fire is lit. Frosty, glittering glass shards covering the garden this morning. Scudding cloud. Geese in formation, honking as they cross the sky.
Slow winter wending it's way closer to us.
Stay warm.
Have a great weekend.

Love the thread box - I saw one a couple of years ago now, but I'm afraid it was too expensive....
I love the thread box.
I have one but it's nowhere near as beautiful as yours (mine's very battered and faded!)
The frost was lovely this morning

wow wow wow! I love them all
Ooh, cotton reel box is an amazing find. Love the little rabbit too and the brown hat with button trim, gorgeous. I am sure they will go in a flash!
What a lucrative haul - lucky you. I do love Sylko drawers but never have enough cottons to fill either of my sets!
