Even now it still has a few strands of her hair...this brush is priceless to me. I also got her "Christmas Dress". This dress is the ugliest item of clothing that has ever been made. It is hideous. Uglier than ugly. But I love it because it reminds me of her in happy times. I have always thought about just getting rid of it because I obviously will never wear it and it just sits there. Maybe I'll make a couple of quilts out of it. Thanks for the idea! |
That is such a good idea. If she loved it, then she will love that you are holding on to it. I just can't bear to get rid of my granny's stuff. It just hurts too bad. I miss her soooooo much!!!!
