The Life Of B is hosting the Squares Challenge for the month of October. Instead of posting on the 365 Days Blog as in the past, the posts will be here once a week with 7 photos (one for each day of the week). Each photo represents a rendition of the word “Past” for this month of October Squares.

Different optics were used to bring out the romance of beautiful carvings in the woods. I can’t tell you which is handmade or machine made, but they show the antique beauty either way. I just know they are older than me by 4 times *ugh*.

I have said this before and I find it true – they don’t make furniture like they did back when. The craftsmanship is just not there anymore or very hard to find. These pieces have been around for 100-200 years and they are strong and heavy and useful to this day. I am very happy to be the caretaker of these pasts. I dread the thought of them being in a bin when I am gone from this earth…
Thanks for joining me in the Life Of B Squares Challenge of PastSquares.
Til next time…

Beautiful pictures and gorgeous details. The Armoire one seems very unusual.
[…] wonder I’m in the pink with all these different views and fabulous seats and desks to enjoy squares […]
what fabulous furniture’ Like you I love older furniture, so well made and so many stories to tell. Around us in the action rooms it is always coming up and it goes for a song as everyone wants cheap modern stuff these days 🙁
And so glad you are joining us again for Squares
Squares is always fun and I am enjoying all other posts too on it 🙂
