Get Pushed Challenge #549
Flash of Red 2023 #10 - Found
My get pushed partner challenged me to join in with this week's DarkRoom theme of music. While hunting to shelved jewelry boxes containing jewelry belonging to my mother, one of my grandmothers as well as some stuff of my own, I came across this small pin of a violin. I knew this had to be my grandmother's because at one time while growing up her son, my father, took violin lessons and I have the old, beat up violin. (Fodder for another future photo). I thought this would work out ok for the challenge.

How lovely

[Kathy]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Glad you liked this Jackie. Thank you.
@wakelys Thank you Sue.
@casablanca I thought i'd like to play the violin and thought about getting my dad's fixed, but it would probably be cheaper to buy a new one. I don't want to play that bad. Thank you.
@Dawn Thank you Dawn.
