Happy Sunday Morning Everyone,
Good morning all
The cats helped me sort through the linen closet. No, they were not much help but sure enjoyed getting into a usually "no-no" area. Upon opening the door I felt like announcing "my name is Annette and I am a hoarder". Out went the old hairdryers, curling irons, a stack of old cards and assorted JUNK. Not all the junk was tossed but it is better organized. I couldn't get rid of a bag filled with doilies my grandmother made for example.
Kisses

Hi there!
Annette, I have some lace my grandmother made before WWI in my cedar chest. I'm thinking that I will have them matted and framed for my office when we redo it in a month or so. It will be preserved and I'll enjoy it so much more than I do with it all stashed away.
It's a beautiful morning here, so we took our breakfast out onto the patio. So peaceful and quiet. The neighborhood basketball game hasn't started across the street yet, so it's still nice and quiet without the constant " thud, thud, thud" of the ball. Oh well, better they be playing basketball than sitting inside or finding trouble around the Hood.
Gotta go see what Gary wants me to look at on his computer. Usually it's something that interests him a whole lot more than me, but I let him think is great.
Hugs to all!

I had some doilies I couldn't part with. Obviously, with cats, doilies on furniture just turn into scrap thread, so I mounted them on black or dark blue velvet and framed them in old frames behind non-reflective glass. They look especially nice in a bedroom or bathroom. And, as Susan said, so much nicer to enjoy them on display than in a closet. Added plus....they don't have to be washed and stretched over and over again.
They make nice gifts for family members who will treasure them.
A great outlet for your creativity, too.
