...more treasures in the guest room...

...the bedside table is small...
...well, so is the guest room...

...because it has a glass top...
...it's a great place to display some family treasures...

...some of these gems are from antique stores...
...some from my Gram's sewing box...
...delicate and sweet old glasses...

...old dotted swiss curtains form the soft foundation for the arrangement...

...wonderful old tatted lace...
...tiny white buttons...

..little thimbles and scissors...
...and the most delicate blue pin cushion...

...yes, that's me on the right...
...the handsome young man is my big brother...
...and the precious baby is the apple of everyone's eye...

...my Gram was listed in this program...
...she was in high school at the time...
...notations list the prize winners ...
...we always knew she was one of the best...

...sweet lace gloves...
...and of course, the old curling iron...
...the vintage valentines are addressed to Gram's husband, Glen...

...perfect little needlepoint coin purse...
...wonderful old hat pin...
...a hairbrush with a silver top...

...just a little glimpse...
