Inside the Corner Cabinet

With the corner cabinet completed
I was excited to start figuring out what to put inside... 


Here's what I ended up with (at least for now!) 


On the bottom shelf...
Old, pretty books;
Mike's grandfather was a glass blower,
& made the paperweight;
Some wax & sealers.
This oil paint set was my great-grandfather's.
Also in there are some ink wells & glass ink pen.
I love how the reflections show the curve of the door's glass.
On the middle shelf...
The oldest of my Bible collection;
A tiny jewelry box that Mike gave me when we were dating;
An hour glass.
On the top shelf...
Framed picture of Westies;
Brass camels from Saudi Arabia;
A brass cordial set;
A brass alligator nutcracker;
Some pretty books- not old, but just the right size. 

Funny story on the brass alligator... 
My 4 year old picked that out at a yard sale over the summer.  We paid $1.
About two weeks ago, I saw it on One Kings Lane for $89!  
The kid has a good eye!
