I propose to put the readership to work.
From time to time I will post stuff from my late-mother’s house (my house now). She was a bit of a pack rat and she also did a lot of artsy-craftsy things, some of which she could regularly sell at art fairs, etc.
My experience is that you readers know a LOT about a LOT. Hence, I want to tap your knowledge. And if you see something you want, let me know.
Help! I am a bit overwhelmed with it all.
Anyone know what these are? Polished rocks on stands, sure. Anything more than that?

She made this. A frame for a mirror, maybe?

That’s what this is.

She also found uses for tchotchkes… of which she has very many…. for gluing purposes.


She didn’t make this.

Then there are the furniture pieces. Any thoughts?


So, this is an experiment. I’ve got this stuff now and I’d prefer not to simply dumpsterize it. But my time is precious.
