CHURCH PEW, ATTENDANCE BOARD, PINS and BLESSINGS

I've been looking for a small antique church pew for a while.  I found one about a month ago at a local antique mall.
My intent was to place it in my foyer, but what I loved about this pew was the size (about 4 ft) and it had the original book/music holder on the back with the communion cup holder too.
When placing it in the foyer, you could not see the back of the pew, (and I wasn't happy about that) so I sat it at the dining room table.











As you can see, I do enjoy collecting a few religious items.......My friend Mike (from Over the Moon Show) was so sweet in giving me these..........little pins from Sunday school or vacation Bible school?  I think they are precious......







                                       My old church attendance board



         Have a wonderful and blessed week my friends and thank you so much to everyone for your prayers~~~~~Roxie

    Like that pew, never thought to put it with a table for extra space to sit. Your decor is lovey.

    Oh I do love that pew, I bet you were thrilled when you found it! I wouldn't have wanted to cover that treasure on the back either. How handy to keep your bible and even your devotional book there for the mornings...and perhaps even some special cookbooks too! Fun, fun!

    I was on the road yesterday and missed your post..I have gone over and left a comment. I am so sorry my dear. xxoo
