Sewing machine drawers

I found these sewing machine drawers at the curb last summer and have been debating what to do with them.
I may try to sell on and keep the other for a project....hum so many projects....what shall I do?


I love the detail on each of the little drawer pulls


and one of them has this little detailed corner which is so cute.

the bottom of this one lost it's veneer

After some research on some of my blogs that I visit I found some great ideas like this one by Mamie Jane's




Here is another idea to use the drawers for from

I just came across this real cute idea for these drawers out on the potting bench. I will probably line them with plastic and give the wood a good varnish b/4 planting them.
where can i get one???
I still haven't done anything with the drawers except keep some jewellery in one. Here is another idea that I came across on Pinterest

    Nice idea on up cycling the drawers. I like them on the caddy, but the little votives are nice as well. Endless possibilities.

End of a collection #Breweriana

 For years my hubby and I collected Breweriana items. It started with beer glasses and within a year or two without realizing it, we had over 100 displayed in our A frame window ledge. Then it was coasters from every bar or restaurant we visited. The next level was Beer trays which we eventually sold off. This all started when we were making our own beer even managed to find the old quart size bottles and the cases. As with most collections it grows without even noticing. You know it's out of control when you need to clean over 100 glasses, twice a year. We still pick up glasses, coasters and trays here and there but more for reselling. This is the last bit of the collection that we no longer display and all the coasters have a pin hole as they were mounted in our basement on our barn wood walls. They are in relatively good condition for the next collector to come along and purchase them. Poshmark.ca/closet/bpagani Thank you for checking them out.  update this batch which had lots
