    old-fashioned May Day / Beltane

    How many of you used to make May baskets when you were little? I grew up in the MidWest USA where we would make little cone baskets out of construction paper and doilies, fill them with flowers from our garden, hang them on the door knobs of elderly neighbors or friends, then ding-dong ditch...

    vintage violin

    I finally got around to getting pictures of the vintage fiddle Johnny is loaning/giving to me. We have some repairs to do. Check out the wooden case with leather strap. Sigh. I think I'm in love. The label inside reads: "Christoforo Giorgi, fecit Neap. 1951"

    Could anyone assist me with copper cleaning advice please?

    These bookends have been in my family for awhile: I adore copper, but it requires as much or more care than silver (which I hate).
