A 1940s era tea wagon in Marci Cristani’s dining room, seen 13 years after it was refinished. Cristani said the item is in 'mint condition' and will be passed on to her family members when she downsizes or passes away. After being gifted the wagon from her mother Gloria Dillabough, Cristani had it refinished, as well as stained to match her furniture. She said it’s a constant reminder of the people and memories that are important to her, such as her chore as a girl, buffing the tea set to make it shine. (Connor McDowell/The Brandon Sun)
