Indy Dog Show

Diana you did a wonderful job with your photos and mementos .. You are so creative.. I love the little china doll. I like antiques to not much of a collector though. Glad you had a fun weekend...


Janet I have never been to a dog show sounds like you had fun. All I have been doing lately is working. Not complaining but I need some time for meeee.

Diana I love everything about the frame. Did I read right that your wedding ring is in there too? I'm curious why you don't wear it, but it's okay if it's none of my business. I want to do something like that too. I really love it!

Yes, it's my real wedding ring that's in there because when we got married we couldn't afford much and for my 20th anniversary my husband bought me a new ring. The engagement part of my old set has a solitary diamond and when my daughter, Amy, got married they couldn't afford a set so I gave her my engagement part but the wedding band is a very, very thin band and she wanted something wider. So I put it in the frame.

My son has my husband's wedding ring and wears it daily. My husband couldn't wear it and we couldn't have it stretched (long story) and there was a design all the way around it so we didn't want to have it sized, plus he never wore it because of being around equipment all the time. I had it laying out when I was putting the frame together and my son was there and, well, I just gave it to him.

Some of my aunt's have made some. They put a copy of my grandparent's wedding license with their wedding picture inside with an old pen and glasses. Another one has a picture of my Grandma with all of her brothers and sisters in it with glasses and gloves and a pearl necklace. They are so beautiful!!! My frame had a reverse painting on the glass and I had to scrape it off to clean the glass. It took some work but the frame was worth it!!

You would love it Gina. All the different breeds and really for the most part, everyone is so nice and willing to share information and let you take pictures. We all need time for us and I really enjoyed spending it with Lynne and her hubby at the dog show.
