hipstamatic iPhone glass ceramic butterfly |
I have an very large, old pine corner cupboard in my dining room, given to me by my mum when she 'downsized'. Everything stored on top is precious to me for the memories and the person who gave them to me. My mum also gave me the large milk churn - with a warning that it came with the cupboard and has to stay with it! One year for Mother's Day, she gave me the cream jug with the heart - to let me know that even though I'm her daughter, she thinks I'm a pretty ok mummy too! My girls bought me the butterfly, secretly, on a week's holiday in Lyon. The jelly moulds I've had for years - bought one sunny Sunday morning when I lived five minutes away from London's famous Columbia Road flower market. All the childrens' party jellies have been made in them. The just seen spotty glass bowl was a birthday gift from my cousin, the silvered glass tumbler, used for night lights, a gift from my brother - and the tall glass candlestick was brought back by my mum after visiting the yummy Baileys.
Nothing there is worth anything in monetary values - but it's all worth a lot to me for the beauty that simplicity and love bring into my home.
Happy Shrove Tuesday! xx
