Fun framed projects!

I got some fun things framed for around the house! The first are some really cool (color copies) sketches from a friend of Grandpa's family (Kennedy) ... they were the Christmas cards that the friend sent for several years (during the 1920s and 1930s).

I love how detailed and tiny they are!

The second is a piece of textile that I bought when Mom, Emily and I were on our two week cruise around South America. I bought it on the Falkland Islands (how many people can say that?!?). I think it turned out so cute! The weaving is only about 4" tall ...

The third is a photo from the children's book, The Advice of the Dandelions, that Granny Farley read us when Emily and I were little and would go stay with them during the summers. I bought the cute antique frame on eBay - it has a domed piece of glass, and I think it's just perfect for the picture of Larkspur the donkey.
