FAMILY HEIRLOOMS ARE PERFECT FOR THE HOLIDAYS

 

Good Morning Kindred Spirits...
the holidays are here....Thanksgiving is now upon us
followed by the Merry Christmas season....
Today's post is all about incorporating certain
family heirlooms into your holiday table....
The old days were the best days..
growing up, my sister and I would travel by train
from Mississippi to Ohio with my Grandmother Grace...
we stayed  with her many summers, as well as
special Christmas holidays as both my grandparents
lived in neighboring Ohio towns....
those times were magical as a child....

Their house is still standing today which is amazing,
as it was built in the very early 1900's....
Grandmother always had a fresh fruit basket on her buffet
during Christmas...I so adored her.....
I was fortunate enough to inherit beautiful vintage items
from both grandparents and always try to display
some of these on special times of the year....

I decided to pull out a few vintage sugar, creamers,

as well as these beautiful Depression Glass salt and pepper shakers

and incorporate them onto the Thanksgiving table...

This little creamer belonged to Grandmother Grace

As did this sweet little sugar and creamer

I have three of these beautiful cut glass tumblers
which were from Grandmother Estelle....

As was this beautiful domed butter dish....

I hope this inspired you to look though your cupboards

and enjoy seeing and using a few of your family heirlooms...

Wishing you a beautiful week ahead...
