Awww, my precious things...
I feel like I am auditioning for The League of Gentlemen but I don't own a corner shop....
But no, hold on a darn moment...I'm talking about my precious object for 'Show and Tell' time at Sian's 'Storytelling Sunday'.
Hmmmm, now what to show? I have many a precious thing...precious in memories but not precious in value (the best sort I think).
How about a handmade Japanese style brooch made by a friend...
An Eternity ring that I waited an eternity for...
One of my sons first paintings of me...
It's so hard to choose..
How about my sewing box....originally my Mums, now updated with a lick of paint...It has stood in my Mums house since I was small, used often to sew a button, take up a hem or to even sew my wedding dress. Lovely memories.
I keep all those unfinished sewing/woolly projects inside in the hope that I will pick them up and maybe finish them.
One day I will...
One day I will...
A lovely place to keep them....but you better not let them get too comfortable in there!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's perfect Alana - just exactly the kind of "precious" I was thinking of. And of course I'm loving the fact that you chose a sewing box too. There's a hint there that you have some other treasures to share - I'm looking forward to it!
ReplyDeleteA precious box filled with precious unfinished treasures! I have way too many of those to fit in a single box...
ReplyDeleteI think we all have unfinished treasures that we 'hope' to one day finish :-) Your mum's box is a lovely place to house them.
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous sewing box - looks fascinating. I like the list of possibles too - glad to hear there are more to share later.
ReplyDeleteI have my mum's sewing box too ... and it looks just like that :) .. what a lovely thing to call precious x
