Our White Desk
Howard & I bought this vintage white desk for our anniversary a few years ago! The glass doors are smokey and reflect the family room. On the desktop is a lamp that my mother and daddy bought in about 1950 on a trip to San Diego, Ca. We bought the old travel typewriter a long time ago..don't remember where, it closes where it can be packed for a trip. The glasses on the desk belonged to my grandma. The drawers contain old vintage letters that belonged to my mother and my grandmother, most are from 1929-1950. I will be joining the party at http://fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/ and also at, http://nominimalisthere.blogspot.com/
