Show And Tell Friday



Kelli hosts a show and tell Friday. Do you have a something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, an antique find. Your show and tell can be old or new. Use your imagination and dig through those old boxes in your closet if you have to! Feel free to share pictures and if there's a story behind your special something, that's even better!


I wanted to share my Tater & Onion Bin. The top part of it is a bread box. My son, Joshua made this for me when he was 15 years old. It is one of my special pieces of furniture.
