The everyday can be quite humdrum or quite lovely. I decided to look for the lovely today.
This is beautiful because it once seemed impossible, but somehow my hands and my mind have learned to cooperate in such a way that this celtic bag is coming together.
The beauty here lies in the resourcefulness of my Grandma Becky which enabled me to create a work of art. You see Grandma Becky saved every button she found. Plastic buttons last much longer than cotton fabric, so she passed on a lovely collection to me.
My Grandma Becky also had lovely taste in what are now known as vintage pillow cases.
Grandmommie Berry worked a fine quilt. There was something special about moving home and finding such a treasure in the closet to adorn my bed. It makes a home just a bit cozier to have tangible reminders of a faithful heritage.
good reminders... not just of visually lovely things, but internally lovely things.
ReplyDeleteYou're quite lovely yourself.
And the angles and ways you photograph... nice :)
P.S.-- how is your scrapbook coming along. I'd love to see it.
P.P.S.-- Buttons are my fav
