I was a receptionist and that was way before computers. We had those machines with rows and rows of numbers!<br />I love your mantel and I'm so glad to see you busy crafting again.

I use it as a background in the photos for the items in my Etsy shops. I was after a very specific "look," and that old frame fit the bill perfectly! Glad you found a good use for yours, as well.<br /><br />Have a wonderful week...<br /><br />KathyKatyDidStitcheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10924565488913959754noreply@blogger.com
