Throughout my home, I have little treasures and surprises hidden here & there. This photo is of a bird house my dad and I made together (actually, he did nearly every part of of the bird house and I tailgated). The rest of the stack is a pile of vintage
jewelry boxes. Inside are lots of wonderful buttons laying on a bed of amber velvet.


This little tin medicine cabinet hangs in my powder room. When you turn the right side wooden knob a little mechanical slide allows the doors to open. Inside is delightful.

In this photo you can see my chunky little pitcher, a
collapsible tin cup, little Miss Beauty and a wonderful pink box.

The second shelf has just as many goodies. I love this kitten, it reminds me of the same molded plaster kitten my sister, Shelly painted grey when we were kids. She had a grey cat named Mitten. Aren't these little baskets wonderful? And, just as you suspected, there is a treasure inside the little present box. When you come and visit my home, feel free to look inside!

I hope this has inspired you to tuck treasures & surprises around your home!

Hey, I'm looking in the box when I visit this Spring! I remember the grey ceramic kitten Shelly painted and I'll never forget Mitten.

Your sis.
Here is the verse I was reading RIGHT before I clicked over and read your blog:
Exo 19:5 Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine
Of course I had to look up "treasured" in my 1828 Webster's and he defines it as "hoarded...saved back for future use."
I think your blog is a great illustration not only of how He treasures us but also of the treasure He has hidden from us that He has yet to reveal as we seek Him.
C'Holden & P'Junky...I just love you two! Thanks for the sweets!
