How To Make bonnie's album

  • Step 1
    *Welcome to my little corner of the world!
  • Step 2
    *
  • This is the large windchime, which consists of a candy dish as a base, and light weight chains, which will rust to perfection some day.  They hold silver pieces: 2 serving forks, 1 serving spoon, salad tongs, serving spatula, and a candle lopper. The blue ball was on an old wind spinner we had for years that fell apart.  The whole chime cost under $5 to make.
    Step 3
    I love to make these windchimes. Here are two of my wind chimes that hang on my back patio. This windchime is the larger one and has silver serving pieces: spatula, spoon, fork, a candle lopper and salad tongs.
  • This is my small silver chime.  The base is made from a lacy silver candy dish. Pearls and beads from the craft store are strung on nylon covered craft wire. The chime holds an assortment of tarnished silver spoons. At the top of each piece is a silver inscribed charm which says, Peace, Love, Hope, Believe, and Faith. These chimes make beautiful melodious music when a breeze comes through the patio.
    Step 4
    This is the smaller one. The base is made from an old silver candy dish and has a great collection of silver forks and spoons. So, gather up your old silverware and make a lovely keepsake for a friend. Enjoy!

  • This is the first cookbook I have found that was named Tried & True Recipes.  It is leaning against my computer monitor.  Does that web page look familiar to any one?

  • Step 13
    This lovely lady is my little Grandma from KY, and is my Dad's mother. She had a very positive influence over my life. She was very religious and very kind. She liked to cook.
  • Step 14
    Dad and the double rainbow
  • Step 15
    Dad in the RV in Las Vegas.
  • Step 16
    My Mom and Dad when they were young. She was 21 and he was 22 in this photo.
  • Step 17
    Here is me ! I loved sailors. I was a war baby, and there were lots of them around. If I saw one, I would start singing "Bell bottom trousers, coats of navy blue." It attracted a lot of sailors who would then gather around my mother and I. This did not please Dad.
  • Sweet Phoebe, doesn't like the camera too much! LOL!  She has beautiful chocolate brown eyes, and for some reason they wouldn't turn out in the pictures.
    Step 18
    Phoebe is 3 years old and a black cockapoo. She has unique white eyebrows, and is a very comical dog. She loves to dance in the kitchen. She will go outside and bring Chantilly in if I ask her to.
  • Sweet CHANTILLY LACE, is our oldest little baby.   She is 1/2 the size of Phoebe, but she is definitely the boss.
    Step 19
    Chantilly is 15 years old and acts like a puppy. She is the queen, and doesn't let you forget it. She is a white cockapoo. We call them the Oreo kids. Dogs leave paw prints on our hearts. May I always be the kind of person my dogs think I am!
