New Life for an Old Toast Rack
Long overdue post!
I was out over the weekend, exploring Angel and Islington for the first time. Camden Passage Market in Islington (http://www.camdenpassageislington.co.uk/) is a great place for a Sunday roam. I found this antique toast rack in a market stall at Pierrepont Arcade. I don't eat bread for breakfast, and don't really need a toast rack. But I was always looking for a nifty desktop organiser. This seemed to do the job quite well. It's a £2 buy. I hope you like it.
