Box of Treasure

Look what I found.

Look what I found at the thrift shop recently! I was trolling along the "Wooden Decor" isle, (my favorite, surpassed only by "Bric a Brac") with an eye for things that could be substrates for encaustic painting.
But, I like things with drawers so I inspected it more closely. Look what was inside!

What treasure! I have plenty of art supplies at home that I haven't used in quite awhile, but why resist this? The oil pastels and colored pencils looked like they had never been touched.
When I investigated more carefully at home it was easy to see why. The drawers were very tricky to open and even harder to slide back in. And, it was not easy to get anything out of the little slots. The brushes were begging to be thrown out. 

I'd like to have a set of supplies ready to take on outings, so I've reorganized everything. It is road-ready! Now all I have to do is use it!
