Memorial Day Fun on Zibbet

It's quiet today on the Internet because many families are off at the beach, family picnics, or camping trips.

Memorial Day  although a somber holiday to remember the men and women who died in wars,  has also become a time of families and friends gathering in the outdoors for food and merriment.

The first known Memorial Day was celebrated in Waterloo, New York.

If you know someone who lost a loved one you might want to take a bunch of hand picked flowers to them as depicted in this print of a painting by Patty Fleckenstein.

I've been adding some new things to Wild Goose Chase

The geese are flying south, and that reminded me that I have been neglecting my shop Wild Goose Chase.

If you have stop in now there a few new things but keep checking back as I will be adding more over the next few days.

I've added some vintage greeting cards, like this one.

New Bags for my Mirrors

I got some exciting mail yesterday from the OleBagLady. She sent me some new bags she made for my mirrors. Now some of my mirrors can be purchased with bags and pouches. She does a very professional job of sewing. Trust me, you would not want a bag sewn by me. I bought holiday fabric bags from her last year. It is wonderful to not use paper gift wrap anymore. The fabric bags get folded neatly and used year after year.

My daughter voted she liked this mirror pouch best which comes with a Rafiki Mirror. It's a one-of-kind.

I think the Troll and Unicorn mirror with this glittery pink bag is really pretty. There are 100 mirrors to choose from. Some come with bags and some do not. If you see a mirror you want but also want a bag contact TheOleBagLady and ask for a custom made bag. She does a great job.

I have mirrors to take on your vacation.

A mirror to bring to a friend in the hospital.

A gift for your hairdresser.

For a wedding or bridal shower.

A mirror to take on a picnic to the beach.

Currently 100 different mirrors to choose from. If there is something special you want on a mirror, a beloved photo like this one of my father and my daughter, just ask and I will be happy to make it for you.
