Whimsy


 I think these two little spinning tops are just ready for a challenge!
They look like antiques;  something you found in your grandma's attic, don't they?!

  4. I have some wooden toys my step-grandpa made back in the 1960s -- he made toys for all of us cousins (and there are lots of us, ha!). He made so many different toys and among them are tops. I'll have to show them on my blog sometime. I'm betting, just by looks compared to things I have that are antique/vintage, that your tops are several decades old. Sometimes things like that are worth money, but to me I'd never part with them for sentimental reasons. It's always wonderful when you can repurpose old items, too! Hugs to you!

  5. Fun! I'l bet a little furniture oil would pep them right up.
