More Treasures and a Crown

I have been helping my Mom go through things of my Dad 's since he passed away.  My Dad was a pack rat of sorts he kept everything.  We found in his desk every hotel and key card he kept through his many travels.  He also kept every credit card he ever owned.  I could go on an on.  He had so many neat things hidden away.  My Mom has also used this time to clean out her closets and the attic.  So yesterday I came home with some more treasures from her house.  In earlier posts I mention all the goodies she has given me.  She is such a wonderful Mom, the best!   

I got to see the almost finished product of my Mom's kitchen.  She remodeled the whole thing.  Beautiful cabinets, a beautiful desk area, and granite counter tops.  My Dad picked out the wood for the Desk it is gorgeous.  She just had the kitchen painted in red and yellow.  I am going to take some pictures this weekend to share.

I made a cute little crown for my niece Hannah Marie, she is the sweetest thing.  She is getting ready to redesign her room in horses, she loves them.  My Mom and I gave her my old riding hat for her room, she was so excited.

I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend!  My husband and I are off together this weekend, it rarely happens.  I can hardly wait!!!

I love it that your mother is sharing. Those little porcelain doll heads are wonderful. Love them and the clock, too...oh, and the spools! All of it! Bristol, thank you for thinking of me when you see Scotty things..that is so sweet! My email address is sweetcottagedreams1@comcast.net. Give me an email, if you wouldn't mind, about what you have for sale in your shop. Have a wonderful weekend. Oh, almost forgot to comment on your crown - that is just splendid and looks like you spent hours making it. I need to learn how to do that. So pretty! xo, Becky

Your table vignette is wonderful- I love that clock and pairing it with the spools and doll heads is just charming!

You found some wonderful things! Even more wonderful because they are from your family.

I think your table vignette is wonderful too.
It's nice that you will have those lovely things of your dads, and that you are passing on some lovely things yourself.
I hope your weekend is truly wonderful.
Best wishes!

What wonderful treasures! Love the wooden spools.
My grandma kept EVERYTHING, too. My Mom and I made a shdowbox to display some of the quirky little things we came across.

Cute crown, too!
