Today is a special day - Susan has her 100th Tablescape Thursday anniversary and I also have my 100th post anniversay. For anyone who has never been to Tablescape Thursday it is just unbelievable - the talent of some people is just amazing. Please stop by if your have some spare time and check them out.
My table this week is just a little group of memories I have put together.
I started with this lovely glass dome (cloche?) that my mum was looking for a home for - it doesn't have a base but it fits my lovely silver tray but today I have sat it on a pretty white shawl I had for my children when they were babies.
I had these lovely old books (obviously well read!) by Beatrix Potter. They are looking a little tatty but these were a favourite with my children.
These cute shoes were worn by both my girls and I just love them!! I love the gorgeous daisies and the little bit of lace on the top - just beautiful!
This tarnished silver teething ring was also used by my children. Yesterday I spent the afternoon with DNo 2 and she was amazed at some of the treasures I had kept from her childhood. She was able to take some of the clothes she had worn and is now going to use them for her little girl - how special is that xxx
This beautiful key is one of my most treasured possessions - SNo 1 was out and about on the farm with his dad when he was about 3 years old (he is now 24) and he found this key and brought it home for me. It has sat on the window sill above the kitchen sink for all those years and I look at it every day and it reminds me what a gorgeous son he is.
This is my baby brooch - sadly it has lost it's stone - it was a pretty purple amethyst but to me it is still really beautiful.
I can't wait until my little granddaughter fits into these cute shoes!! She is like a little doll to my daughter - so much fun.
As a today is my 100th post I am having a giveaway!! For everyone who is a follower and makes a comment on this post I will put you in the draw for a pack of my home made cards. They will be similar to these but as I haven't made them yet I couldn't take a snap of them!! I will leave the competition open for a few days and will let you know early next week who is the lucky winner!!
Have a great weekend,
Suzy
