Stuff
by chuckofish
Design Sponge had a story recently on 10 Family Heirlooms That Tell Stories. This got me thinking, because, of course, we have often written on the subject of liking our “old stuff,” our “heirlooms,” and the importance of telling our children stories about their families and bringing them up to appreciate their histories and, well, “old stuff.”
Clearly not everyone feels this way. But I even like other people’s old stuff and that is why I go to estate sales and like to think of myself rescuing old needlepoint pillows and even old plants. (Leave it to me to ascribe heroic intent to this activity.)
But I love my old stuff and I think my children appreciate it.
Enjoy your home, I say. Enjoy your things. After a long, stressful day at the salt mine, isn’t it nice to come home? Yes, it is.

Wow! Your house and things look beautiful and so perfect. Why can’t my house be dust free and neat?
And, of course, I agree with you 100%.
I love you/our “old stuff” and indeed it is nice to come over and be amongst them!
So many wonderful dresser tops and shelves ❤ I can only hope to have such a nice home of my own one day!
Love all of your things!
Nice baseball! And gin bottle too…is there anything in it?
