Remember the thrill of opening your school locker and seeing a little love-note flutter out, left there by some anonymous admirer who had secretly jammed it though the vents? Admittedly, this only happened to me like, twice, but I imagine it’s the same feeling teens today get when they receive a text from a crush or somesuch. Although texting hardly sounds romantic. You whippersnappers don’t know what you’re missing!
Jenny decided to rekindle the flame in her own home with some school surplus and paint, giving these industrial old lockers a shabby chic look to blend nicely with her decor, and giving herself a bunch of extra storage in the process. Now that’s love. See more on her blog Ava Blake Creations.
