"Show and Tell Friday!"
If you are looking for our "Giving Thanks" celebration, please scroll down!
Welcome to “Show and Tell Friday!” Do you have something special to share with us? It could be a trinket from grade school, a piece of jewelry, or a treasured collection. Look around your home for something to share; dig through those boxes in your closet if you have to! Share photos and the story that goes with your special item.
I dug through my jewelry box for today's show and tell. The first thing I'm going to share with you is a bracelet that Phillip gave me before we were married, about 15 years ago.
He had it made at Disney Land and as you can see it spells out my name in gold!
A small blue stone dangles from one of the swirls.
My sister, Melissa knows how much I love acorns, so on my recent vacation, she surprised me with these tiny acorn earrings.
They are about the size of my pinky!
I don't wear the bracelet anymore, but I've been wearing the earrings as much as possible since Autumn is coming to an end!
Thank you for looking at my show and tell!
Show and Tell Guidelines
What is Show and Tell Friday?
Show and Tell involves showing something to an audience, and then telling them about it. Your show and tell must be something that you own, and is in your home or garden.
What items work well for Show and Tell Friday?
Here are a few ideas to get you started:
-Family heirlooms
-A collection you may have
-A piece of jewelry
-A special gift
-Gardening pictures
What doesn't work well for Show and Tell Friday?
-Posts with no photos have no "Show." Please don't use them.
-Photos of events (trips, vacations, celebrations, etc.)
-Photos of things you are selling or planning to sell.
-Photos found on the internet, graphics or screenshots. Please use photos you take yourself.
-Old photos of just people instead of things.
There is no place like home is the original home of Show and Tell Friday. Please do not host your own.
How can I participate?
Once you've got your photo(s) and your story, it's easy as 1-2-3!
1 - Publish your "Show and Tell" on your blog, including a link back to There is No place like Home.
2 - Copy the link (or "permalink") from your post.
3 - Add it to Mr. Linky, along with your first name only. I usually put Mr. Linky up on Friday at 12:00am Eastern time.
Since next Friday is the day after Thanksgiving, "Show and Tell" will be taking a short break!
Your jewelery is so much fun! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving and I'm glad you chose to take a break next Friday. Blessings...
ReplyDeleteYour jewelry is so pretty! I love the bracelet. How romantic that your husband bought it for you. The little acorns are so cute too and so perfect for fall!
ReplyDeleteHugs! Sharon
Kelli, Your items are lovely, thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a clue how I ended up on both linkies , very weird! Could you delete the first Tiany, it did not go through the first time so I did it again but when I refreshed the page there I was twice! :-)
Thank you!

Hi Tiany! That was my fault, I just wrote you a note in your comments! It should be fixed now, scroll down to the Giving Thanks" post.
