Elizabeth Stones's Profile

To be honest I would have just covered over the taffeta so if I hand it down the next person can play with it and I don't always agree with painting and yes that lovely wood will never be the same but their twin sized bed and children were going to be using them paint it protect so later on they can restore it to their taste. I own many a antique hand me down some I painted some I left alone with just some tlc.

I know how you feel I use to have a huge collection of hotwheels and matchbook cars as a kid... I remember being able to get them on rainy days when I was well behaved. It's funny when I think of those little cars I remember playing with them and think about all the well loved handmedown cars my sisters played with to. And now as my sisters youngest now plays with them kind of makes you beam that so much history in such little toys.
