There were a few things from my Gran’s house that I really wanted. One of the must-haves was this green vase. It sat on the window sill of her dining room. Sometimes it held a Magnolia bloom from the tree by the drive.
When a magnolia was out of season, it held a plastic waterlily bloom with leaves. (It is being washed as I type. It was covered in dust.)
I was happy to have a Snow Country Dahlia bloom to fit the vase today. Rose and I brought in many flowers, herbs, tomatoes and peppers. I cannot predict when I will have time to harvest before the freeze, so we did most of that today. Drying herbs blog will follow.
I hope my family sees this blog and remembers the lovely home of our precious grandparents.
The object is treasured for the memories it holds.

That is a truly unique vase — and I’m sure you’ll treasure it (and the memories it will conjure up) for years to come. I have a little vase from each of my grandmothers and love to fill them with flowers too. Thanks for sharing your memory of you Gran.
