An unfinished wood box, stained in walnut with a Hitty graphic decoupaged to the lid. The inside has fabric covered padded cardboard insets.
My husband and I found this old, rusty nut while practicing using a metal detector in the mining ghost town of St. Elmo, Colorado. We went to a different part of Colorado to look for the hidden treasure of Forrest Fenn. We didn't find the treasure, but we had a great adventure and have this nut as a keepsake. You can read about our search for the treasure here, here, and here.

For 118 pictures in 2018, #22, "I made this". This is a keepsake box I made for my wife about 30 years ago, made from black walnut (main wood), rosewood (dark center strips), lacewood (lighter center strip), and maple (corner braces and thin stripes on lid). I'm not sure I would have the patience required to make this today, lol.

A jug that was more often than not used for flowers by my mother. I kept it because I really like the colours.
Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. All comments and Faves are very much appreciated
When last we saw Bella and Colette, it was June 26th, their anniversary, and they were going out on the town to celebrate. They had a beautiful evening, everything was just right...romance, love, candles, and champagneā¦it truly was an amazing evening. In fact it was during this lovely evening that they decided it was time that they took their relationship to the next stage, and decided that Colette should move in with Bella. Colette already spent most of her time at Bella's anyways, so itās not like she wasnāt use to the commute into the city for work, and it seemed silly for them to have two homes when they really did spend most of their time at Bellaās, so it was decided that Colette would move in!
And so began the rearranging of Bellaās home, and this has kept them very busy this summer. Bella has always wanted a proper doll room, and she also wanted Colette to feel like this was truly her home too, so with this in mind it was decided that she would turn her old bedroom into the doll room she has always wanted, and using Coletteās bedroom furniture, they have been redoing the spare guest room into their new bedroom. They finished Bellaās doll room first, here is how it turned out...

Bedroom of Barbieās New Dream House # 4092 (1964-1966).
*(My Dream House came with the original, illustrated wrapping. Stapled to this wrapping is a receipt from Korvetteās, dated October 10th 1964. It was purchased in Chicago, or in the suburbs of Chicago. The seller was the daughter of the original owner, her mother, and she also played with it as a child. I like that I am the third owner of this house.)

This is my great grandmother Lauraās chair. She was wheelchair bound and despised it. So her family members would put her in this rocking chair and slide her across the floor.

My son Craig made this when he was eight years old, I used it for a challenge on 52Frames this week for Door. The detail is amazing He went on to buy a lot of houses throughout his 48 years for rental. He also built a house in Kalgoorlie Australia.
I am trying to be ruthless in tossing out unnecessary things in this upcoming move. But this, my first digital camera, first Panasonic, my companion for my time in China, will stay with me, though it hasn't worked in a long time. I remember being so thrilled at the 12 power zoom ! Now I'm using 60 X. I have 2 newer Panasonics, love them and depend on them, but this one was a brilliant companion, work horse and travel buddy for those ten years. I like to think it remembers what we saw.
These cuff links were my dad's. The engraving made an impression..... And obviously so did he. My plan is to offer them by Facebook drawing to my family members. I think it is time that I start sharing the many wonderful memories I have of my parents. It will be fascinating to see who would like to have them.

if you loved me
why'd you leave me?
wouldn't it be nice if you could hold all the beautiful things, everything you love, in a bottle, and never let it go, and never let it escape you.

The sunrise shot I keep making things out of. With the texture, it reminds me of an old ceramic tile. I've always wanted to paint on tiles, maybe someday I will.
Have a great Thursday!

"There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, The holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. God is in the midst of her, she shall not be moved; God shall help her, just at the break of dawn." Psalm 46:4-5
It's only the world's systems that are shaky. The Kingdom of God is solid and immovable. If we live there, we can be safe and secure.
