There is an annual Gala here at one of our local hospitals, the Mercy Hospital Gala and my husbands company always buys a table (this past Saturday Night). It was very nice to be asked to go this year. I was going through jewelry and started taking pictures for Show - n- Tell Friday.
Long ago my folks were very involved in Eastern Star Chapter ??? At 51, I still don't understand, but they always dressed up, I've had this necklace forever and it goes perfect with a simple dress.
I always think I'm going to wear these, but I've never made it out of the house with them on. The are clips and they hurt. Women before me had stronger ear lopes.
I know in a family you are not to have favorites, but I had a Grandma G who broke the mold. She was one of a kind and this is something she gave me, her charm bracelet with all the grands and greats names and birthdays. I seem to take it out when I miss her.
Grandma G, wore this and I called it her sand paper necklace. So many memories..... I wore my own designed beads and stub earring. But I had a ball going through everything.
Sew Happy,
Beth
