i'm sure many of you out there can relate when i say that i like to collect stuff. there are the family heirlooms which have been handed down to me from great grandparents and great-great grandparents. there are things i've bought at auctions and flea markets over the years. i have cherished items that my daughter and i bought together when she was little, things my hubbie or kids gifted me and of course the odd ball item or two whose origin is quite fuzzy. i recall many hours as a child admiring my grandma j's and grandma farmer's pretty dishes. a few of those items are mine today. i so look forward to my granddaughters oohing and aahing over my pretty keepsakes as well. and so the collecting continues, the legacy plays on as i gather a treasure-trove of lovelies in this oak china cupboard. this is the first of what i hope to be a regular feature on this blog called grandma julie's treasure chest. each tuesday i'll give you a sneak peek into the chest and share a special memory . i hope you'll join me.
