Show & Tell : All things……

Show and Tell

Since I’m back home for the holidays, I am taking the chance to put up shots of my Mum’s collection of gifts from around the world. Some of them are souvenirs that we had collected on our family holidays. My Mum is an avid collection of such items and I think I’ll soon follow suit since we’ve recently moved into our very own home.

So here are all things……

Europe : Mainly Ireland because I have 2 cousins who have moved there. Both of them are working there and when they come down, we get a little something. Very thoughtful of them, eh?

Thailand : These are souvenirs my Uncle gave us on his many trips to Bangkok. Being a business man, he travels a lot so we get a lot of souvenirs from him. It’s really nice of him to think of us even when he is on business - s true gem! :) He’s my fav uncle too. Heh.

China : Souvenirs Mum bought on her trip to China. She went to Beijing and had a chance to walk on the Great Wall of China. Her dream is to visit all the 7 wonders of the world.

Porcelain? :) Actually I just threw this one in because Mum loves vases and she has many more but I really liked how she arranged them on our showcase in the living room. :)

Have a good weekend!
