Before the age of typewriters and computers, movable type was the popular method used to print documents. The use of movable type in Europe actually dates back to the year 1436 with Johannes Gutenberg's printing press. Today's blog is about a creative way to use a movable type printing tray.
During my last visit to Joan's home, I couldn't stop looking at one wall in her dining room. I was drawn to this display posted below.
Joan has had the fortunate opportunity to travel extensively in the United States and abroad. Along the way she would pick up tiny souvenirs from her exciting adventures. By selecting small items from your vacation spots, it makes it so much easier to bring them safely home in your suitcase. With such a large collection, Joan got to thinking, "How am I going to display all these souvenirs?"
That is when she thought about a movable type tray that her father actually used at work.
When furnishing your dwelling, consider decorating it with recycled commonly used items. You'll be able to create a great conversational piece for those who visit your home.
