Today I took a 93 yo client to visit her recently turned 100 yo sister in law at a local retirement home. I tried not to listen to their conversation ("sorry I never call but I just kind of sit here watching tv all day..nothing to report." " yep, me too. I pretty much just sit in my chair all day as well.") as I flipped through my magazine, but I couldn't help but overhear "I see you have mother's ornaments on your tree." Well-- handmade ornaments by the mother of a 93 year old?! Yeah--this gal had to sit up and take notice. They are classic 1960s handicraft and very well done. I apologize for the picture which doesn't nearly do them justice but take my word for it; these pinned and beaded ornaments are a lost art form!
