Sharing

As earlier posted we have been dividing furniture from our childhood home. My grandmother had some beautiful pieces of furniture and I wanted to share some pictures.

The first was her bedroom suite. My sweet niece has it in her bedroom now. I know she will love and cherish it.

This wardrobe was in my grandmother's bedroom. Her furniture came from Germany many years ago. We have always been told (and amazed) my grandfather moved all this furniture in the back of a small pickup truck from Auburn, Alabama to our home in Mississippi which is about four miles from the Mississippi River. My sister now has this wardrobe in her home. They had just finished putting it back together when this picture was taken--thus the reflection of the ladder chair.

Sharing

My new furniture--Thought I would share my new piece of furniture--a marble top dresser. Actually, this piece was in my bedroom when I was a child. It belonged to my family and was the dresser that went with the bed my mother was born in. The dresser was given away to a needed family and just in the last few years returned to our family. Since my parents are now living in an assisted living home, I was the blessed recipient of this beautiful piece.


This china cabinet is filled with cut glass and crystal I also received. I had so much fun unpacking and placing it. Every time I look at it, I will be reminded of my dear grandmother and how she loved her cut class and also how many times I dusted it as a child growing up.
