Bill surprised me with the discovery of a box of treasures from my NY home which I used to keep in my grandmother's china cabinet.
(It now houses weaving cones and shuttles).
This box has been missing the full 13 years we have lived here.
Bill found it on the bottom of a pile of boxes in his shed.
I am just so excited to know it didn't go to the dump as I feared!
This is an early 19th century black walnut basket.
It was a gift from Bill so many years ago.
These are lead crystal dishes gifted to me from my MIL after a trip to Poland.
This china piggy bank I purchased from the Redwood Gift Shop at Blue Mt. Lake in the Adirondacks 50 years ago! I can't believe he made the move and the misplacing so well!
Silver plate, carnival glass, old dishes....all collected by me through the ages!
A cup from my MIL when I was newly married.
I bought this heart bottle when a teenager.
It's interesting to me to see that the things that drew me so many years ago,
still are things I would purchase today-
old dishes, bottles and knick-knacks!
My joy is only tempered by the fact I have to find room for everything in the house now.....
