{ Vintage Treasure Chest }


If you're a flea market fanatic, like me, you know these are a dime a dozen.
(and if you're in need of one let me know)

But, this one just caught my eye and I had to move it from the garage to the house.
Maybe Mrs. Abel and I were kindred spirits in a former life. Maybe we traveled on the Titanic together?


I especially love the leather handles that are still in tact. And, the dark, almost black color of the body.


But, the best part of Mrs. Abel's trunk is the travel stickers attached to the side.



It feels right at home in the den (for now).
