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.
Today I am sharing a few of my special Autumn decorations. My sister, Melissa gave me this candle lantern a few years ago and it is one of my favorite decorations.
I have it displayed on my letter writing desk.
Melissa also gave me these acorn earrings last October when we came for a visit.
And lastly, a beautiful picture that my mom painted. My dream farmhouse is just beyond the red barn.
I have the picture hanging on my front porch which I will share with you soon. Thank you for looking at my show and tell!

Kelli,
ReplyDeleteThe cut-out lantern is beautiful. I can see why it is a favorite. And the acorn earrings are the sweetest. I also like acorns. I can remember playing with them when we were kids. We played all sorts of games with them.
The picture from your mother is a lovely keepsake. I can see my dream farmhouse beyond the red barn as well.
Take care. I enjoyed my visit.
Blessings,
Mary

ReplyDeleteEverything is lovely as usual, Kelli, but especially the painting by your mom. She is talented!
