Creating Memories

A red phone just like this one was one of my very favorite toys of the 1950's!  I would set up my little desk with my phone, paper, and pencils.  I thought I wanted to be a secretary when I grew up.  so I practiced and practiced! http://www.rubylane.com/item/168085-TYRDPHN/Vintage-1950x27s-Red-Metal-Toy-Rotary

Still Stuck on Valentine's Day!   Many of us have warm and perhaps hidden memories of  previous Valentine's Days with a very special someone.  This is another example of a neat collectible Valentine Hankie with a hidden message.  Vintage Hidden Message Valentine Hankies are fun like a not too hard Jig Saw puzzle with a special loving message....

Stuck on Valentine's Day.... So while we reminisce about previous Valentine's Days and add a touch of child hood (or otherwise) nostalgia to our current ones, what about Creating New Memories? We create new memories for ourselves and others everyday.  We can specifically choose to create new memories for Ourselves, for our Children, Grandchildren , other Family and Friends.  Of course our goal is to create happy ones :)  New Memories don't have to be built from nostalgia but the things I chose to build mine from are tid-bits of history.  Ever the romantic, I revel in the idea of who has handled this before me what did it mean to them and then what feelings does this "new to me thing" spark in me.  So I choose to collect old things. Currently one of my newly found  Valentine's are hankies...I like most that still appear as new... from the dainty to the vibrant and bright. http://www.rubylane.com/item/168085-LFTNRBTS8/Rays-Hearts-Vint...
