Evening all…it’s me, Peanut again. Well, today I gave Momma a hand with her latest project but she swore me to secrecy, in exchange for my continued “constant attention” LOL
Today’s quick project is down below…but I’ll be back soon to tell you about my hard work soon.
I can’t believe Thanksgiving is this week, time just flies. I have to say this is one of my favorite holidays. Looking forward to the first one in our new home! I love the turkey and all the fixings and this year we are having Audrey and her new beaux over too…which will be extra special. That means LEFTOVERS, since I always over cook LOL…nothing better!!!
My dad gave me some beautiful pieces of sterling silver and silver plate that were my grandmothers. She had an eye for gorgeous pieces when shopping antique shops. I will be posting about many of the pieces as time goes by but for today I wanted share these beauties which were mostly doubles and extra pieces…so I asked John to make me napkin rings out of the sliver plate spoons in the collection. He used a piece of pipe and bent them around. I think they’ll make nice additions to the Thanksgiving table scape.

They look great! It was a good idea to use the spoons in this way, and John did a nice job shaping them.

She was so cute, what I left out and forgot was, she just came over and climbed on my lap while I was working. She was getting upset because I’ve been working for two days. At one point she was laying on me and following my movements.
Happy Thanksgiving
