Day 164 - Antique


Suzie.. im running out of old, tattered things now :D

I was originally quite stumped by today's word and was going to take a photo of the bracelet my mother in law bought me for my wedding day, that will one day be an antique. It was on my way to retrieve it that i noticed the old iron victorian fire places we have in two of our bedrooms. They are not in use (but could be if we wanted to) anymore and sadly the previous owner painted over them, but at least they did not remove them and board up the walls as so many other people would have done. We will probably to the same in the boy's bedrooms at some stage, but rather than removing them we will put false walls in front of them.
