I do hope everyone had a wonderful, safe holiday. The weather in Ohio sure can change quickly. Two days ago we were sweltering in high temps and humidity, and today it is jeans and sweatshirt weather. I am NOT ready for summer to end. As so many others have commented, Labor Day is the unofficial end to summer :(
I took a few pictures at Wink's house that I will share with you. Many years ago I caught the "antique flu" from her. We still have the disease :)
Wink has a great collection of patriotic items. (Soon they will all be put away to make room for her fall decor.) I am going to steal this idea from her. She grouped a collection of cobalt blue bottles and filled them with American flags.
More patriotic items . . .
This is a perforated paper sampler.
Child sized dry sink.
A very small part of her featheredge collection. She is the one who introduced me to it many years ago.
These are a few of the reproduction samplers I gave her over the years.
Her first grandbaby, 12 month old Clayton. Isn't he just too cute?
Pug hugs :)

ReplyDeleteLove her collection!! Are you going to Malabar this year Lauren? Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures! I'm with you as far as having a case of the antique flu. I hear there is no cure and that it is highly contagious.
