Posted this picture of my latest vintage find on my Instagram just the other day. I dusted it off, brought it inside & placed it on the kitchen island. I love the mustard color & that it gives Hector a new place to sit in the kitchen. I asked my followers to try to guess what it was in it's former life. I got a lot of great responses, guesses & a few that were actually pretty darn close. My hint to them all was think school related. Hmmm.......?

| -Look how happy Hector, the cookie jar, is? I've never seen him so happy. Maybe it's because he had a belly full of Flour-less PB CC Oatmeal Cookies too- |
It was an old wooden step {riser} to a school bleacher. My friend posted it for sale online & when I saw the color & read what it's old purpose was I just had to snag it up.
{I'm a sucker when it comes to anything school related}
Oh, the possibilities with this beauty. Turned over & upside down it can be a container, standing up right it can be a book shelf or I just might leave it as it is as a bench on my kitchen island. Who knows.
One thing I do know is that it will be used somehow in someway at The {Fall} Hive next month. I can guarantee that this will be a show stopping display piece of somekind.
Come see what plans I have for it.
The {Fall} Hive
Sept. 18, 19 & 20th
4011 Lilac Lane in Mountain Green
I'll be sharing more pics & posts of the school decor that I put up inside our home all this week so be sure to check back. Hope it inspires & delights!
