Turkey feathers!
These were found in an old tin can
on the top shelf of a junk shop this summer.
Such a beautiful rich brown color along with the black and white and such distinctive and striking patterns!
There really isn't anything more beautiful than the natural world.
So, today while we continue with our
I am thankful for the beauty all around us...
...for Mother Nature.
We give thanks for all of God's creations.
Adding to the white Victorian nightgown and the 4 vintage photographs of Aunt Nancy in our Gratitude Give-Back are these
3 rusty skeleton keys
I think they will clean up nice but some of you like them rough and rusty so I have left them as is.
Let's also add this old lace collar...
...and a few rhinestone buttons
and vintage earring clips
...and a few old doilies and some blue trim
...and some pink trim and a few fabric yoyos and
two wooden package holders
...and some more cheery and colorful trim left over from
Silver Bella swaps and projects
...and these two sweet little vintage
handmade pot holders
...and a pretty hankie or two and several rosaries.

Keys are something of a lifelong love of mine - my sister and I both used to be fascinated by them as children and I'm still unable to resist picking them up at car boot sales and on eBay in my 20s! Funny the things we retain a fascination for!
Your shots of the Turkey feathers are exquisite :-)

Love your blog. I am grateful for having 2 children who I know I can always count on. I believe God gave me them to take care of me when I no longer can. It would be so sad not having anyone in our lives. They are a gift. judy
As always, your post is so pretty! It makes me want to get out and scour the woods for some feathers, but I'm afraid I might get shot by an eager deer hunter! I'll just enjoy yours! Love the giveaway treasures you are finding to add!

What a fabulous giveaway based on gratitude!
I've always believed the key to happiness lay in an attitude of gratitude myself and so embrace it everyday! My wonderful and wise Grandmother always told me "Health is Wealth" and so one of the things I've always been grateful for in life is my health. I've been a follower of yours for a very long time and would like to invite you to come by my blog sometime for a visit. I believe we are kindred spirits of the treasure hunting kind!!
Enjoy your birthday week and have a blessed Thanksgiving!

Keys. Why do we love them? There's something romantic and fairytale about them. Fantastic that you've included it in your giveaway.
On the subject of nature, I think I'm thankful that nature can fight back against mankind's mistakes. xx

You are so incredibly generous - in this world now that is such a rare thing. I am thankful for people like you. I was reading this as one of my ESL students, a refugee from Burma, looked on and she pointed at your images and talked about her experiences and memories of feathers and family and friends in the camps in Thailand. I did not think a blog I love would generate so much talk for her. Thanks again.
I love those two little pot holders, arent they just the cutest little things?
