My get-pushed partner challenged me to photograph a flat lay with at least 6 items. As the title suggests, this is some of my grandmother's stuff. The handkerchief that I used as a background was hers, too. The little locket in the upper left has a picture of my dad. The ring in the upper right is a mother's ring with three stones in it. I never knew about the third child, but found her as a 3-year old in a census when my grandmother was married to someone before she married my grandfather. I never knew about him, either. I am guessing that the little girl died as a child. Perhaps that led to the failure of my grandmother's first marriage. Oh, the mysteries you uncover when you dig into your family history.
Lisa, here is my flat lay. Thanks for the challenge. I enjoyed this project more than I expected. The subject matter makes all the difference. I've got far more of my ancestors stuff than I know what to do with. I finally found one use, thanks to you. @homeschoolmom
