Re-purposing

Over the course of a long legal career, my father amassed a great number of plaques that once decorated the walls of his judicial chambers.  They are too sentimental to part with, but also too numerous to properly display.

 

My wonderfully organized friend, Tracey, suggested I use them as lapdesks for the children to assist them with their school work.  They are exceedingly sturdy, perfectly smooth and have a taut string on the back perfect for holding papers and pens.  My father--scholar that he was--would approve!

Now that is a great idea! And a wonderful way to constantly remind your family of your dad! Kudos friend Tracey!
