“...so I will greet you
in a way
all loved things
are meant to be greeted
with a tear in my heart
and a poem in my eye.”

For the theme this month Lisa red stilletto chose three themes, Tabletop, Old Gold and Lost Treasure. I've chosen Tabletop and Old Gold.
These Portmeirion Canisters are very special to me, they were given to me by a very dear friend.
Many thanks for your visits, kind comments and faves, very much appreciated.

Some days I spend entirely too much time creating a photo only to be a bit disappointed in the results. My grandmother was a wonderful seamstress and I inherited some of her sewing notions after she passed away. This is a selection of zippers rolled up in rose-like shapes. I secured them in place with paperclips. My process sped up after I made a bunch. The zippers were all of various lengths so the flowers vary in size. This was another exercise in color.
It certainly looks like it is going to bloom again! More pictures of my amazing amaryllis in my Amaryllis Album. Link in the comments
Another shot from today, can't decide which set up I like better so I posted both. I feel like this image is more in line with my style.
These wax seal stamps are lovely to use. They're small, but they're a very satisfying weight because they're brass.
For this week's Looking Close... on Friday! theme, Cylindrical.

For the Crazy Tuesday challenge: "childhood memories"
One of the few things I have from my Grandma is this "Sunday best" afternoon tea set.
Tea with her was quite an ordeal for us children! We had to be on our best behaviour, to be seen but not heard, and ask very softly for a sugar cube!
Grandma rarely spoke of her own life, but she was 'in service' at 'the big house' when she was about 12. She and Grandad must have met there, as he was a joiner/woodworker. And I guess grandma worked in the laundry, as she was meticulous when ironing!
Shot with the Canon EOS 70D and the Helios 44-2 lens.
