Special things...


Please join Cindy at My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday. It's a fun place to visit for special treasures!

I have just learned how to make mosaics on Picasa and I'm hooked! It's so much fun so I thought I'd use it for my special treasures.


This mosiac houses some of my very special treasures. The Bible is from my paternal grandparents. They brought it with them from Germany and as you can tell, it's been loved. The autograph book is from my maternal grandparents side of the family, also brought with them from Germany. The angel is from my sister~in~law and the seashells and fan are from my travels to various beaches.

Enjoy your Friday!
