Lots of people have family heirlooms. I’m fascinated to learn how they are collected, worn, or displayed. You may have seen some of mine on this blog, like my grandfather’s typewriter which has become my logo as a writer.
I have my grandmother’s watch. I’m 95% sure it’s her watch. I guess age is catching up to my capacity to remember things, but I’m pretty sure it is. I’ve kept it thinking I’d do something with it. Maybe turn it into necklace. I’ve seen some cool ideas on Pinterest. But I just can’t decide, so for now I’ve hung it on her picture. I guess that’s better than keeping it in a closet. I wish I had those pearls and earrings because I remember her wearing them a lot!
I’d love to hear what you’ve done with your heirlooms. Please share in the comments.
