Traveling display

I finally had a bit of a brainwave last week sorting out my display with Renegade- a couple of vintage suitcases that I can bring with me on the plane.... so I don't have to ship my whole display!  Necessity is the mother of invention sometimes, and having a mother-in-law who just happens to have a 'collection' of vintage suitcases just sitting around is also extremely handy.
Happy Monday to you!

Collections at the farm

This last weekend we spent the night in Langley at the family farm, working on the fence so the new calves don't get out.  My in-law's have about 5 acres that they built their house and barn on about 35 years ago or so.  Dean's mom is a collector of all sorts of things- sewing baskets, china and dishes, and tins is only the start.  There are more collections here and there around the house, in the sewing room or in the garden shed, and it's always like a treasure hunt to find them.
