Metamorphis Monday - There's an Elephant in the Room

Out with Christmas - in with another collectible. Elephants, Elephants and more Elephants.
















For Christmas:









When you get a chance, take a look at Between Naps on the Porch (http://www.betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/). I'm joining them for Metamorphosis Monday. It is a great blog and so inspiring.


This blog is dedicated to the collectibles. If you'd like to see the things I make, go to http://www.junkandjewels.blogspot.com/.


Earlier I had posted a picture of my elephant table decked out for Christmas. Loved it, but am ready to move on. I collect elephants. When my husband and I were married 42 plus years ago, he had two elephants and I had one elephant and arranged them all together on our coffee table. That Christmas I got elephants from all the family members saying 'I saw your collection'. Didn't know I had a collection, but certainly have been collecting them ever since. Displayed are just a small selection of my elephants.

There is no denying "the elephant in your room" :) Love the table. Isn't it funny how collections get started?

My grandmother used to collect elephants! She said they were lucky...we are going back some 50 years. I keep a little white porcelain elephant in a glass enclosed cabinet in the kitchen to remember her.
