Tools of creativity  by beryl

Tools of creativity

My father was a stunning creative & artistic craftsman and these tools are typical of what he had in his workshop when I was a child !!
This shot was taken yesterday in an antique centre on my way to the garden centre
Lovely photo of an amazing collection of tools

I would say theses are not antique at all! Hubby uses all of these when he needs to!

I have yet to break out my Dad's carving tools, though I have intentions of doing so one day

@maggiemae I agree there Maggie mae - but with all modern electrical equipment ot today these hand craft tools are not so much in demand --i still have some of dad's tools here & lots of fond memories !!

I love the old tools and my Dad's workbench is in the basement and my grandfathers tools. Lovely shot of your treasures.

Thank you all for your kind comments --it's amazing how a shot from the past brings back so many fond memories that in our minds surround the image in question !! So it's not just me that get sentimental over a glimpse of the past !!

Just right for the word of the day and it brings back memories for me of my granddad's shed with all the tools plus garden implements.

Lovely shot. A well ordered tool bench? Makes me shiver... mine is a real mess and I can never find anything!

Lovely shot, Beryl. Reminds me of my fathers tools. Not that he used them very often...;-)

It is always special when you find some thing that brings back good memories. Nice shot. Thank you for your recent comments on my photos. I have struggled to keep up with 365 but your comments are very much appreciated and valued.

Wonderful capture!! My father was a carpenter and also had all these tools as I remember. Not sure what happened to them.

What a lovely reminder of your father and his special skills.
