Greetings to you all this evening..
Did you know the hockey playoffs are on??
Do you have a hockey fan in your family?
I do...
By the time they are over I will be quite tired of it all.. smile..
And to top it all off I have a famous cousin who plays for the Boston Bruins...
He is a bit of a spitfire, I think.. Some says it runs in the family.. smile..
He is a good player, though.. grin..
Anyway....
I thought I would go around the house and take a few pics for you..
Just a few little quaint touches...
Hope you enjoy...
Lots of old books in this house... smile..
And several bird's nests..
My husband brought this one in to me the other day..
Violets are one of my fave flowers..
If it has a violet on it then I usually love it...
An olde pin cushion from my dear friend, Julia..
I wrote about her HERE...
Remember...
Under Two Flags...
I bought this book for it's cover.. grin..
This little book is called the Acadian Album..
It is an autograph album that belonged to a girl called Annie..
1888..
Several verses are signed from Mass. USA but then there
are verses written from Salisbury, N. B. where I grew up and some are from Lewis Mountain which is about 5 minutes from here..
I forget where I bought this..
A $5.00 tag is still on it so it must have been a yard sale..
oh dear...
Another beautiful little treasure..
So old...
See the blanket it is lying on.. It is on a window seat in one of the spare rooms.. My step father gave it to me..
His s first wife made it from a real sheep's fleece..
I treasure it, too..
An old french ivory brush and an alarm clock...
I love old clocks... smile..
And an old letter from William..
Precious..
A little hand stitching I did..
Are you a kindred spirit?? smile..
If you love old stuff like this then I would say we may be..
I hope you liked these little touches...
It's the little things that make a house a home..
Or so my Mom always tells me.. smile..
Thank you so much for stopping by ...
I loved having you.. I hope you leave me a wee note.. smile..
Take care my dears...
