Today, though, I took a picture of something and planned on putting it in the box. And I couldn't. So I still have to go downstairs for a replacement. I will post it tomorrow with tomorrow's selection. The one I picked for today I really do like, but the criteria I use to decide is a) am I using it (not do I like it) and b) would the kids ever want it. And the answer was no to both those questions. But I couldn't part with it.
Many many years ago, Joan, Bill's sister in law, held (I think) a candle party. And she gave me this as a gift. Now, I know that some of the things I am removing from the house were gifts at one time, and for that I am sorry. But at 62, if I kept every single thing I was given, I would be buried. But I really really like this item so I am not only going to keep it, I have moved it upstairs to my purple room and I am using it! I shall put a pic here. So tomorrow's post will hold two pictures of two things. TTYL
SO PRETTY...I LOVE IT TOO MUCH TO GET RID OF IT |
BUT THAT HAD BETTER NOT HAPPEN TOO OFTEN! IT THROWS STARS AND MOONS ALL OVER WHEN IT HAS A WEE CANDLE IN IT. I REALLY LOVE IT AND USED IT IN EVERY HOUSE I HAVE LIVED IN FOR YEARS NOW. |
OMG! Of COURSE you must keep those! Moons and stars are my very favorite things! I even have a moon and stars tattooed on my right shoulder..:-)
