Letters & Numbers

I have been absent from blogging since my lap top went in for repair.  It is now on it's fourth hard drive.  It's fixed now, but I was without it for a few weeks.  So, where was I? 

I can't resist buying letters and numbers .  I love the graphic and simple designs on game pieces, signs, containers, etc.  Here are a few photos from my collections:

Leave No Cubby Empty

Who doesn't love using a cubby for displaying collectibles, storing kitchen and office supplies, and organizing studio bits and pieces?
