All the years growing up and staying at Grandma's house this piece served as a lamp table. It had legs on it and had nick nacks on top. I just never paid attention to what it really was until we had to clean out Grandma and Grandpa's house. That's when I noticed that the end table was really a Coats & Clark spool cabinet. Fortunately, when the auction selling everything was held, the auctioneer was kind enough to explain that family was bidding against everyone. I was so blessed that people let me purchase this item without running up the price. I store my counted cross stitch and crafting supplies in it.
I have linked up with the

What a lovely remembrance of Grandma! I've always wanted one of those. The drawer size is so handy for little things.
