    Talking I'm Turning Into My Mother-Shoe Nicknacks

    I don't really like nicknacks at all, but I had to have all these shoe ones at the Goodwill today. It reminds me of Germany or something.

    Check out the funky shoes. Not the greatest pics though.

    Oh goodness! I've finally met my match! Yup! I have a shoe collection too. When I had the Victorian decor' going on, I had a bunch of shoes in my curio cabinet. Since I'm into the Italian look now, I've got them put away, but I still love them and have no intentions of parting with them. So call me a "hoarder" already. Doesn't bother me a bit! There's just some things I won't give up! Oh...did I mention that some of them came with matching parasols? Impossible to part with......you understand me, dontcha Palooka? LOL!

    Love, love, love the collection! Just a "tinge" of jealousy here. HA!

    Enjoy them!

    Nice collection, but, what really impressed me is

    * You don't have every horizontal surface crowded with clutter; and
    * You have a rotary phone!

    Your rotary phone is a lot prettier than ours is. And those shoes are cute.
