MORE DRAWERS

Continuing on with my collection of drawers---everyone collects drawers, don't they?  You can see my original drawer post here.

I don't know where this drawer came from originally -- probably a hardware store.  It has tin sides with great graphics on the front.  It is currently home to another collection of mine -- hand towels with 'huck weaving'.
This metal two-drawer unit is from my childhood.  My grandparents owned a sewing machine sales and repair shop in Kansas.  Originally, there was a stack of about five of these units that housed sewing machine parts.  I don't have a clue what happened to the rest of the stack.
Or, why I ended up with one of the units.  I just know I was always fascinated with them, so I probably whined enough that they gave me one unit to shut me up.
This is a tiny chest of drawers also from my childhood.  The woman that cut my hair as a child was Japanese and displaced to Colorado during World War II.  She knew I loved little things, so she gave this to me one Christmas.
 I've always kept tiny treasures in it.
 It is currently displaying thimbles from my grandmothers and great-grandmothers.
More drawers to come in a future post.
