I’m thinking of making this a new weekly feature, but… not sure if I’m totally sold on it yet. I already have Wordshop Wednesday and French Friday. Maybe my Thursdays need to feel more liberated and not so pigeonholed? Then again, I love vintage and retro-y stuff anyway, so I kind of doubt “throwback” material would feel very restricting or hard to come by.
Well, we’ll see how it goes.
But, for today, I feel absolutely compelled to post the following images, which I came across last night thanks to Uppercase Gallery‘s ridiculously awesome Flickr stream. I’ve become a bit of a Flickrholic lately, so be careful: it could happen to you. In any case, when I saw these images of the Fisher Price School Desk, I instantaneously screamed and clapped my hands with major elation. And then a bajillion happy memories (both visual and tactile) began inundating me.
It was awesome.
So, without further ado, I give you: The Fisher Price School Desk:
Oh. My god. I had that desk. And I didn’t remember it until just now. See what I mean about you making me want to buy things, even if those things are memories?!
I know!!! I didn’t remember it until I saw it either!!!! And then, suddenly, I could totally feel those cool, slick little alphabet magnets and fitting them into the word cards… Best thing ever.
this was one of my favorite things when i was a kid!
