gims Member Registered: 01/16/07 Posts: 3404 Loc: USA	I resorted to using the $3 brooms from the dollar store. I try to keep one broom for the indoors, one for outdoors. My DH and grands seem to forget and it's off to the dollar store for me. I can't stand the thought of an outdoor broom being used in my kitchen, only on of two rooms that we use a broom for. How cool for you to have a broom made by your grandpa, Cookie and Mountain, I have a rolling pin made for me by my dad, and two small ones he made for our girls. I have small hands so the girls' fit me best. My DH made me a holder for the wall... mine is on top and the other two below. Prized possessions.

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	I have a collection of roller pins in graduated sizes. Wish I had one of those holders to display them. Right now I have them swirled inside of the oyster bucket that there's a pic of in the FOR SALE area. It works, but they would look better on the wall in the kitchen. _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

gims Member Registered: 01/16/07 Posts: 3404 Loc: USA	My DH cut a small version of a gun rack out of a plank of redwood with a jigsaw. The bottom finger broke off of one side... we Gorilla glued it a couple of times, so it still holds them all. I'd like to have a new (nice and finished) one, but the small rollers belong to the girls and I'm sure they'll be wanting them to pass on to their girls (who are now starting to learn to cook) soon. The memory is what I'm hung on... I bet your house is to die for, comfy and cute... I come to thinking this by way of you and hints of what it's like from past posts.

jawjaw Da Queen Registered: 07/02/03 Posts: 12025 Loc: Alabama	Honey, my house is more like to DIE IN...not for. It is a mishmash of old...and after having been married to Mr. [censored]...I am not one of those people who tidy up every second of every day. If you came to my house, you could take off your shoes and curl up on the couch...it wouldn't bother me a bit...in fact, I would probably beat you to it. My sisters (four of um) all have big beautiful homes and they are decorated to die for....now THEY have the knack. Mine is Early American Poverty. LOL! But hey, it's mine. I love whimsical, too...and cottage style. Overstuffed, lacey, etc...I belong in the 1800's...and probably look like it! LOL! But thank you for that sweet comment anyway... _________________________ Queen JJ www.queenjawjaw.com All Things Royal - 2010 and Beyond Humorist for the NABBW

gims Member Registered: 01/16/07 Posts: 3404 Loc: USA	I'm sure you're selling it short! You describe it so much like I'd have my living quarters, if it were just me - comfortable, homey, cottage style and whimsical... I might even add cooky.
