    where do we find you on the internet to see about your classes? I live in Portland and my DMIL has two steamer trunks that I eventually would like to restore. Cannot right now but in the future.

    I have my grandmother's trunk from her sojourn from Poland to the USA in the 1890's. It's not as fancy and pretty as yours, and someone obviously took a crow bar to the lock, but I'd like to clean it up and restore it. I haven't a clue where to start.

    What a beautiful trunk! I especially like the silk screened top.
