A Memory

glass figurineA glass figurine can be a great keepsake memory.  When I was really little, only about six years old, my great-grandmother gave me a glass chicken, and now when I look at that chicken I always think of her.  This chicken was the first figurine that made me start collecting figurines from different places I visited as memories of the trip.

 

Having a collection of these figurines became a great hobby for me.  I was always enthusiastic about finding the perfect figurine to add to my collection.  It never mattered what the style was, as long as it was something I could remember the place by.  Sometimes I would get a bell, others an animal.  But, no matter what the figurine was, it always gave me the perfect memory of that trip.
