The jig is up and my latest find.

I had no intentions of publishing a new post today, but I wanted to quickly get my "April Fools" post into the archives before my good friend Martha comes a knockin' at my door.  With her lawyer!

So, today I'm sharing with you my latest find and here it is.

As you can see it is an old medical cabinet.



I'm guessing it was used to store small bottles or....... sterilized scalpels?!



There is no hardware for mounting on a wall, and it has little rubber feet.



It has been painted a lovely shade of  Gray Poupon with the original pinkish beige corroded interior left intact, thank you very much.  And the original smell is still there, too.  :@


I do plan to paint it inside and out.  And I'll be very careful not to remove the decal which is on the interior surface of the glass.  Now for the question.  What would you store in this cabinet?  The overall height is only about 13 inches.  There are 2 things I will not use this cabinet for.
  • Scalpels or other instruments of torture.
  • Food 
Suggestions welcome.

Have a great day!

OMG, I'm going to be published!!!!

Holy monkey business, Batman, I'm going to be published!!!  On a lark, I posed my vintage monkeys to add this photo at the end of my last post.  This morning I checked my emails and found a message that was sent yesterday by Carl Germann.  Who is Carl Germann?  Just the Managing Editor of features for none other than Martha Stewart Living magazine!!!!

They would like to do a feature including my vintage sock monkeys AND some of the Studio 911 original monkeys I've created and featured on my blog!!!

These monkeys have all gone to new homes, but they will be forever in my heart.
