Posts Tagged ‘1940’s prints’

Several years ago, when my husband’s Grandmother Eva passed away, my father-in-law invited us all to her home to choose keepsakes from among her belongings.  I chose items some of the family thought were not worth keeping.  Actually a few of them might have thought I was crazy,  but I love them.  I have her old wash basins, her sewing machine and the collection of small prints you see here.  As I have been cleaning out shelves and drawers I came across them today.

I’ve thought about framing them or doing something even more clever.  But so far, inspiration has eluded me.  I do keep one out on a shelf in my home and rotate them each season.  Here’s my Winter print:

And for Spring:

This Spring print is a little worse for wear, but I still love it.

This one is wonderful for late Spring.

And for Summer… a few goats or

pigs.

Come Fall, I can’t wait to put up this little squirrel and nuts.

Now what to do, what to do with these little treasures?
