Ok not really my hidden treasure but more or less dfil's great find!He was tearing down an old school and they had a ton of desks so he grabbed 2,they are for small children with the chair attatched and the top opens up for storage.He gave them to me to use for dd and dnephew while homeschooling them

wow!! what a great find!....especially for homeschooling.:D i love those old desks!! i try to imagine all the little kids that have sat in them.....or when they were brand new.:)

Wow Amanda, what a neat find!! I love those old desks and I bet the kids will love them too! Congratulations on you fil's find.... :)

That is wonderful! I am not a homeschooling mom and I would love to have a couple of those desks. They would be great for the kids to use while coloring and such. What a find!

Great find, I have one of those desks with an ink well too... I love it ! It has very old books on it and sits in my livingroom...... Mine is from the curbside mall too....... Glad you got two of them........

Amanda, good for you! We had one of those we kept out on the porch in our other home. The kids used to draw ,color, read and "play school" all the time when they were little. Seemed like all the neighborhood kids sat at that desk at one time or another. :) One of my better garage sale finds.

Each one of our dk's had one of those desks from a garage sale when they were small. They all did their homework, drawings and played school with them too!

Oh Carolyn, what I would give to have one of those old desks! What a deal that was!

that was a great deal carolyn, Amanda that is so great. they will love it, and not only can they do homeschooling but they can use them to play school with also.

Not to mention that once they no longer wish to use it you could use it as a planter for your porch! I'd line it with a think heavy gage rubber liner, apply a couple of coats of deck protector, and add small interesting plants to it!. Congrats on your deal.

Wow! What a great item to have, and for free! Good for you Amanda!

That's great! I found an old desk on a curb last summer and it's been sitting in the basement, waiting to be painted for dd's room. Maybe I'll tackle it this summer.
