This is some more of the interesting things I have found while clearing out my Grandparents Houses-
Scissors: Have A Good Time But Don't Be Too Much Of A Cut Up
I found these tiny scissors stashed all over: in desks upstairs & downstairs, in old letters that were dumped out of trunks, hanging in pantry cub-board from little teacup hook. When I found the pair with the tag I was so so happy. My Grandmother used to say that to me!
I found the tool pliers the doll house (they look like they may have been on charm bracelet?). I guess Doll House could be considered another WHOLE house that needed to be gone thru. It was full of all sorts of treasures too! My Grandmother would put in anything 'miniature', sometimes costume jewelry items in doll house.
I don't know how old these dolls are. I also do really like the tiny box they were packed in, marked, 'Germany'. They may have been put into that box at any time. They were in a Cigar box, in Sewing box, in a Shoe box.....That was in a Trunk that also had a Fishing box. And it all was dumped out onto floor!
I don't know if they have anything to do w/sewing/cigars/shoes/fishing or not.
Any comments would be appreciated! Thank-You!
