this is a miniature basket given to me by my husband's grandmother years and years ago. It rests daily on the arm of an arts & craft cat and with each dusting I am reminded of a wonderful lady who welcomed me into a new family with open arms and without reservation.
This tiny basket reminds me of one of life's truest blessings - unconditional love and embrace.
A blessing that even after gone, never really leaves you.
What a wonderful memento! Great DOF on this one, Nicki, and I like the PP. And you are right--unconditional love is one of the greatest gifts we can either give or receive.
ReplyDeleteLove the DOF.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet sentiment of a sweet time...love that quote!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful little basket. I love the story that goes with it, too. I have several objects in my home that bring back memories of loved ones, too. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, how lovely. Is it made of pine needles? My mother used to make those. What a nice treasure.
ReplyDeleteLove when certain objects remind us of loved ones! So pretty!
ReplyDeleteIt is a beautiful basket, and what beautiful meaning it has.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo and sentiments behind it.
