.....but don't be too mean....it took me hours!!! Lol As some of you know, I recently lost my Mum in Law. Its been a very stressful, harrowing fews weeks since as hubs big sister arrived from the USA and with the middle sister, cleared the house in 5 days without running passed hubs. To say we and our kids were upset was an understatement. They got rid if so much stuff they was very sentimental to our kids and they would have likes as mementoes of their grandparents..... Still...i'm not gonna dwell on that anymore, its done and we've got to get on with it. Hubs was asked to take lots of 'junk' to the tip, and do you know, God bless him, he went through every bag before he threw it to see if he could salvage a few bits for the kids. Sadly, he didnt recover much, but he did bring a few bits back like a few of grandads cufflinks, ties pins, watches that the kids can keep. He also got a few jewellery boxes of mums. There was nothing of any value in there, except one mounted gold sovereign....which i'm keeping for a rainy day.....thanks mum! The rest is costume jewellery...and not particularly nice stuff either. She did have a lot more. I do hope middle sis (mums natural daughter) did keep some good stuff for her and her own girls. Anyway...i'm rambling. Back to the point of this post. I decided i was gonna make something for the grandkids with all this junk jewellery and craft stuffs I gathered. (They gave me mums craft stuff.... ?????) So, i'm decorating photo frames which of course I'll put a photo of Grandma in. This is the first one. It took ages...much longer than I though it would. Its not the prettiest thing granted, but I didnt have a lot to work with. Its the sentiment that counts, right?? I hope my nieces and daughter will like them.
What do ta think??
