Broken Ornament

I really need to get some better hangers. I love these vintage glass ornaments but they are so fragile.
yes, i miss those. now it's just all plastic. but you're right, they're so fragile they break when they fall. the ones now would just bounce until it gets underneath the table and you would have to crawl to get it.

@summerfield I've been checking out the second hand shops and antique stores and on line auctions to try and get some more, but I really probably have plenty. Many of mine were my parents' and grandparents' but I'm not sure which ones. That's really why I hate to break them.

Yes, I remember the distress as a kid if you dropped one while decorating the tree - they always broke. Many tears. This looks as though it was a special one.

Oopsy! Hope it wasn't too sentimental

They are, but this is a lovely capture.

So sad when they break as it is a memory that has gone. Great capture.

Bad luck but nice black and white shot.

Oh no! Sorry. I do like the light and the broom in the photo. Well done with the composition. :- )

Oh such a shame, we used to have them, they are so delicate, most of them now are plastic and bounce very well. !!

Ops! Great choice in b&w. Lovely light and details.

You got a nice picture out of a disaster.
December 21st, 2020  
Oh no that's not good. You managed a nice photo from the disaster though.

So sorry , but a good reason to buy some nice new ones.

It's such a disappointment when one of these precious treasures break. I swear, it takes a piece of your heart with it when it goes in the trash...

Oooh Such a shame! I love how you have capitalized on it with this great photo though! Fabulous in B&W FAV

@pusspup I like the look of all the old ones I have. Maybe no real memories of this per se, it does remind me of my mother and grandparents. Thank you.
@kjarn 😩
@aikiuser Just in that it's old, it could have been my parents' or grandparents' decoration. And that they're hard to find anymore. @jamibann Thank you Issi.
@wakelys You're very right Susan.
