This is a Banksia seed pod made into a napkin holder (for the US definition of napkin), a souvenir of Australia from when we were there in the mid 1980s.
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.
This was a custom order. The word patches were sent to me and I quilted them on as if I were doing a ticker tape quilt.
The hummingbird wreath was a gift from Daryll's coworkers. The black urn will go to Jamie and I'll have the silver urn. Tomorrow we will spread Daryll's ashes. It'll be our 26 anniversary
This photo shows 2 treasured keepsakes. It used to be a tradition to send a portion of wedding cake to family or friends who were unable to go to the wedding. Cake was sent in tiny boxes, with specially printed gift cards. The photo shows a gift card printed for my parents' wedding (over 70 years ago) with the horseshoe & turtle doves decoration from the cake. G? - obviously, the initial of our surname!
When I first met Hadley, I vociferously let him know that I did not want him buying a dozen red roses and having them delivered. (yeah, I was bouncing off something from marriage one). So he almost never gave me flowers at all to ensure he didn't do wrong.... These were pink roses that he gave me last year as a total surprise. So naturally I hung them up to dry in the garage. Just recently brought them in the house and paired them with the basket. The basket is something we just received from his sister. It had been his mom's. Both items make me happy.

The majority of Keepsake Press publications are fairly sober, text-heavy booklets of poetry but for more personal productions he got out the ornament case and had fun.

These are the two oldest dolls in our collection of family keepsakes, we have no idea how the rag doll on the left lost an arm, but suspect the moves may have had something to do with it.
Hans Christian Andersen really did have a wicked imagination. His stories about evil stepmothers will chill your spine.

This swan actually has a more wonderful story for me. It was given to my aunt May on the occasion of her 50th wedding anniversary.

This was a recent gift to me from my cousin Elizabeth. She lives in my hometown of Bowling Green, Kentucky, I have always been enamored with the deep rich blue of this bowl, and could not believe it when she gave it to me on my last visit. I suddenly today recalled long ago I had started sharing favorite things. When I found this album, I was delighted. Time to renew it. 11/365
I love this family antique. It was in the corner by our dining room table my entire life. Many, many happy memories were made within sight of this cupboard.
Do you have a corner big enough to hold a piece this size? This was truly the only place in my entire house this piece would fit when I finally got it moved from KY to TX last year.

This small case holds an ambrotype of a young girl overlaid by an oval cut tintype of a woman and a small lock of auburn hair tied with a white string. It is obviously a home made keepsake assemblage. We will never know why it was made but the first time I held it I flashed on a husband and father who carried it in his pocket while away from his family, perhaps as a soldier. I find it very touching.
