Coco Chanel is our little angel. We believe she was a gift from God to us. We found her at 4 weeks old a little white fluff ball in a swampy area all by herself stuck between two plowed furrows in a field. She was all white with just a touch of buff when we found her and now this is how she looks 2 years later. She is still our "angel". ]]>

I bought this great scale this summer and am at a loss as to what to do with it. It is a large piece, very heavy, and unfortunately there aren't too many places to display this piece in my home. Anyone want to buy it? Ha! Ideas for what to do with it or displaying welcome. Also, it must of been used in a floral display as it has some glue (appears like it may of been wood glue and does chip off) in the large pan portion of it. The rest of the scale is in mint condition and I'm wondering if this maybe wasn't a baby scale way back when. Anyone know? ]]>
