School House Blackboard



First game of the Junior AFL Season today so we were up early and now have the rest of the day to potter around the house. Or should I say clean the house.
 I set up this little photo shoot this morning with some of my recent finds.
I have been wanting an old school house blackboard for a long time and when I saw this I almost dived on it.
I didn't have the heart to remove the writing and can't really make sense of what it all says but thought it looked unreal as it was.



Picked up this awesome large jar with woven cane on the outside. 


A matching pair of bentwood stools with rattan seats, look like they have never been used. 


Paige was helping me rearrange some of the pieces. 
 
 
 
 
 

Lovely little silver trinket box.
 


The white hall table was given a new top and a fresh coat of white paint. 
 


Last weekend of the school holidays so enjoy!!

It is all so cute. The writing on the blackboard is awesome. Love the big wicker jar - where did you get it? I would love one if they're available somewhere.

I love the blackboard. We had one in our family room growing up and I was just thinking I should do one for the kids. Hoping to pop into your store this week.
