Tablescape


The old house is full of stuff, 60 years full of stuff. Some of it I remember from my childhood. This is a tabletop in what was the dining area. My father built the table from scratch in the mid-60s. The stuff on the table goes from the 1960s to the present. You can see, to the left, a little "boom box" CD player from about 2006, numerous cups, mugs, and saucers, a metal pitcher full of dried-up flowers, and an early 2000s "torchiere" pole lamp.To the right is my rain hat and part of a late 1950s chair. I draw what is in front of me.
