KEEPING IT ALL TOGETHER


I forgot to show you the cabinet that I keep the whole collection in. Jockie suggested using some of the hankies that I have to fancy up the shelves and I must admit that it DID do the job. You can actually see the scotties now.

This is one of my favorites! I call him Buster. He came to me from Ebay! He is really OLD - what a character. He stands on top of the cabinet and keeps his eye on the rest of the pack to be sure they stay in line!

HEY, have you noticed that when you post this way your first posting ends up at the bottom...sigh...

This cup and saucer made my heart race when I spotted it in a case at a thrift shop! Scottish humor, not always easy to understand, but profound when you "get it".

The little funky brown guy was given to me by my friend Larry. He said he had it when he was a child. I felt quite honored that he would give it to me.

Aren't these adorable? I found them on Ebay. The little one is from Germany. The larger one has a little leather collar.

A few years ago Steve & I went to England and while we were there we celebrated our anniversary - he surprised me with this little guy.

See that little tea pot without a lid? That is all that is left of my childhood tea set. OH how did the other pieces go missing??? Once in a while I think of replacing the set but that's as far as it goes...

Back to the collection...
The fuzzy dog was hand made by a wonderful lady in California named Earleen who I came across on Ebay. She makes miniature one-of-a-kind needle felted sculptures that are amazing! I feel blessed to have won the auction for this little brindled beauty! He even has big ears like our Gus! Anyway...check out Earleen's work at sacredbeararts on Ebay.com.
