Vintage Thingies Thursday


So many interesting Vintage Thingies can be found each Thursday at Coloradoladys. Just click her button or http://coloradolady.blogspot.com.



A few styles and fashions from another time framed.




Some of you may recall back on July 11, I had a post featuring the history of this clock. It is now in the possession of my son.  His wife has a great knack for coming up with neat ideas on how to use things or decorate.  This is how she chose to honor my late husband. 


She found this mantel to display everything.  As you an see, she even framed a copy of my post featuring it

Hi LV!

Such a reassuring tic-tock. And, how neat the vignette is with it.

Glorious Vintage Thingies. I remember my parents had a mantel clock, but we don't see them now. Beautiful yours has been passed on and treasured in the family.

Hi LV!

Oh gosh! What a lovely and loving tribute to your dear husband and her father-in-law. Must have really tugged at your heart to see what she had done.

(My husband has a similar clock from his grandmother and we have it on our fireplace mantel.)

Love seeing the old fashions, so much fun framed.

Happy VTT!

Hello LV, My goodness that is the sweetest thing to do for you. Your daughter-in-law is a lovely and thoughtful person. I love what she did. A loving tribute to your husband as well. I do remember the post about your clock.

I also like the oval picture with the fashion ladies. I have always loved the fashion prints.

Have a happy day.
Love, Jeanne

I first tried this product when visiting in Portland and mistakenly assumed this product left my hair so nice-to-the-touch because the Oregon water was so soft. Not so. Using it in my own hometown, I

have had the same results -- soft, natural curls. Too many styling products on the market leave hair stiff and crinkly. Moroccan Oil Intense Curl Cream is well worth the cost. Be advised that only a

dime-size amount is necessary to great results
