I'm drawn to old
boxes and bottles and jars.
When I find one,
I can't wait
to open it up and
discover it's contents!
This particular
well used box,
protected a treasure!
As I opened the
little black tin box,
I found bobbins!
Lots of bobbins ~
and thread
and a multitude of colors!
I tried to imagine the love
that went in to all
the sewing projects.
Colorful bobbins,
like a treasure trove of jewels ~
worn as beads on a necklace?
Or maybe just my
treasure found ~
from days gone by.
Makes me smile!
2013
starts out as
a simple
black tin box.
What will you discover
as you open up
this new year of 2013?
A box of bobbins or beautiful jewelry,
the mundane or the magnificent?
Make it what you will!
It is up to you!
Happy New Year!
Live Your Authentic Life ~
Be the Real You!
Blessings,
Martha
HAPPY NEW YEAR my dearest Marsha!

I will seek elegance rather than luxury, refinement rather than fashion. I will seek to be worthy more than respectable, wealthy and not rich. I will study hard, think quietly, talk gently, and act frankly. I will listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with an open heart. I will bear all things cheerfully, do all things bravely await occasions and hurry never. In a word I will let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common.
In this sense - all my very best wishes for you and your family for 2013!
And - maybe "happy sewing" ? :)
Please be assured that I'll keep you always in my mind, although I was a bit 'absent' during the last year.
Take care,
heartily, karin
Where do you find such fun treasures? I love this post. Thanks for sharing!
