Treasures on my bookshelf...

Reminders of times past.

Lovely old colonial styled artwork by Terone, brought from

my Grandmother's home along with a pair of figurines and a 'lady pincushion' top,

her musical jewelry box, some of her hand crocheted and tatted handkerchiefs,

and dainty white gloves. It doesn't seem so long ago, but I have had them for

at least two decades!

The beautiful painted vase was given to me by my dear Mother-in-law.

It was from her mother-in-law!

The two (tarnished) silver tussy-mussy holders were a gift from

my oldest daughter and the clothes brush is a vintage find.

The glass hurricane lamp was my husband's grandfather's,
the vintage mug with 'swizzle sticks' was my grandmother's.
The little vintage opera glasses/bird glasses were a garage sale bargain
and the 1961 Peterson's Field Guide to Western Birds
was a gift from a friend.
(Dried Lamb's Ears from my garden.)


My Grandmother's old mantle clock with Roseville
Pottery atop.

A wee bell jar covering an ages old rosebud.

The cloth covering the bookshelf is an old Mantle Cloth

that was my Grandmother's.
