I love that you collect things. We've been going to flea markets again and estate sales. So far I haven't purchased anything as I'm kind of waiting to see if anything jumps out at me. Of course I LOVE books, but I keep hearing buttons calling my name. I think I love thinking about the history behind that one wee little button has.Suzannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09305115475768268004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37631948.post-50397013331396621052008-07-16T16:35:00.000-07:002008-07-16T16:35:00.000-07:00Love this post!!I have always loved nesting and be...Love this post!!<BR/>I have always loved nesting and being at home. One of my favorite things to do is make vignettes and rearrange things around my home.<BR/>Until I discovered "blogland" I would have been afraid to admit that. In this fast paced world we live in it seems most people would find my interests a complete bore.<BR/>Thank God for the wonderful blogging community.<BR/>Love your opera glasses and what you have done with them.<BR/><BR/>Hugs to you,<BR/>KimHappy@Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15748146424809856063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37631948.post-40130103640331043912008-07-16T15:25:00.000-07:002008-07-16T15:25:00.000-07:00I have enjoyed catching up on your blog.

Life is so short and we sometimes neeed to be remined of the beautiful simple personal enjoyments we all have inside of us. Somtimes buried to deep to as to not be found. <BR/>Can't wait to read the book you posted about. Sounds like it would be a great story. I love glass eggs. What do you do with a glass egg beyond easter??? At leas the opera glasses are acceptable any time of year. But I do go on finding glass eggs, and those wonderful old croctched pot holders from the 40s & 50s. I think what we collect says so very much about what whe think and love.Andylynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04634072460146378411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37631948.post-1056751148348579342008-07-16T13:41:00.000-07:002008-07-16T13:41:00.000-07:00Your collection of opera glasses is wonderful and ...Your collection of opera glasses is wonderful and very decorative. I too enjoy changing things around my home, it is a great way to see ones things in a new light, so to speak. I tend to change the textiles seasonally, and am just about ready to inject a little bit of colour back into my living room after all the whiteness of the early summer. And I do agree with you, there really is no place like home.Miahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07511372208366707895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37631948.post-8991455222603696662008-07-16T08:48:00.000-07:002008-07-16T08:48:00.000-07:00Heidi, you have created a wonderful vignette here ...Heidi, you have created a wonderful vignette here with those sweet opera glasses.

That was the year 2000<BR/>when I chose dresses from 1900 as our chapter dress when I was Worthy Matron the second time in <BR/>Eastern Star. I was always looking for things for you at the time also. I remember buying you lots of hat pims many long years ago also. <BR/>Love you, MomNancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08094109205059653539noreply@blogger.com
