Decorating With an Antique Toolbox

I just love this tool box.  I will show you a closer look of what kind of "tools" I put inside.

These are some old, antique books and at the right is an old, antique eyeglass case, which holds a pair of glasses that we found in Germany!  Look at this treasure!

You can see the tattered case, in the background.  The arms of the glasses are made with flimsy wire.  Don't you wonder what the story is behind this little pair of glasses?

Another view of these delicately created glasses.

In the basket shown, is a collection of antique, handmade laces, along with an adorable picture of my Grandma Nielson as a child.  I love the picture!  It is my favorite picture.  It has been placed in an antique frame.  The plates in the background are from Rick's parents home and were made in Germany. 

This little corner has a light green canning jar, and some old, antique books from Germany in it.  The collection on the wire draped across the drawer, are military, awards and buttons.

The postcards are old, antique postcards Kaitlin and Joslin bought for me while in Germany.

This is a very old, antique Kodak camera. 

There is a little tea cup and saucer hiding in this drawer, given to me from my grandmother Nielson, who collected them.  The drawers are all lined with antique laces.

A view of the whole tool box, placed on a butcher block we bought at an auction in McCall, Idaho, from Shorelodge! 

Hanging above the display is one of my favorite quilts.
