    I love old postcards, but right now I’m in a tizzy trying to remember where I put my collection when I rearranged several rooms. I just MUST make a master list of all my lovely junk and treasures.

      Ahh yes they are lovely treasures that store away so easily. I do hope you find them and share them.

        I’ve shared a few in the past, and just recently thought of something I wanted to use one or two for, and I am at a loss over which box or crate or bag I might have stored them in. :/

          One good thing about our recent move – I found everything as I had to go through stuff on both ends of the move

            I have been thinking about the state of my house, and although I am constantly looking for things…I also appreciate and love my marvelous mess!

              Ahh I did enjoy getting things back in hand after the move. When were getting too much packrat stuff that neither of us enjoyed. Now we have room to enjoy our treasures.
