Forgotten Treasures Discovered after Clean-Up

After cleaning up several closets/storage house/garage, I discovered several items as shown in the photos below. 
 I found I had a two tie set in a beautiful leather case. I also found three miniature jeepneys and a lady finger folding back scratcher.  Most welcome discovery was the antique wood/leather foot rest.  I found it in the storage house. This foot stool was so heavy, I have to ask David III to bring it inside. It was dusty but after we cleaned it looked beautiful and shiny.

I was not aware I had 20 belts in storage. I found also one of Macrine's favorite doll and a Mini Lamp, an antique brass lamp, a Last Supper wood carving and a Morion souvenir from Marinduque.

Therefore, If you are bored, clean-up your closets, garage, storage house or basement. You may be surprise of your discovery.
