Not long ago, a friend brought out some old photos. One of the portraits was of their great grandmother, and she was wearing a beautiful locket on the bodice of her gown. After viewing the portrait for the first time, their daughter quickly ran out and brought back a small box her grandmother had given her. Inside the box, we discovered it was the “same” locket her great great-grandmother had worn all those years ago.
Here is that picture of her great-great-grandmother
Here is a picture of her wearing her broach, as we re-enacted the picture.
What a priceless treasure that is!
That’s what I do…. I create heirlooms that tell a story.
