Nancy asked about our collections. I've collected darning eggs and wooden darners for years. Alex got me interested in textile bobbins a few years back, so those are also displayed around the house. Here's an example. Excuse the messy shelves. This picture was taken when I was unpacking books!
I can't imagine what is messy about those shelves!
ReplyDeletewhat a wonderful collection
ReplyDeleteThat's a really cool collection. I'd never think to collect someting like that. Just not enough imaginatin. :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW, the shelves look pretty neat to me!
I love bobbins. I even have a couple to use as candle holders/
ReplyDeleteYour shelves look wonderful, not messy at all. Your collection is wonderful, a real piece of history. Thank you for sharing.
