Family History Friday: Collectables-#2 Shelves

Shelves from Grandpa!

I love shelves. I have many in my home. Three of the shelves I have at my home are shelves I inherited from my Grandpa Bill. He bought the shelves from someone who was selling the shelves, that came out of the old trolley’s, that used to run through downtown Salt Lake City.

The shelves are a very beautiful and intricate design. The way I use them is different than they would be in the trolley, because they would normally be turned the opposite direction so that men could put their hats and women could put their umbrella’s, etc. on the shelf and they wouldn’t fall off.  Look how darling our little family was. This picture of our family was taken 15 years ago, but will always be my favorite. My kids are so cute and sweet!

I like to hang things from the shelf, so I put them on the wall upside down and put a rod across to hang things on. I love how they look in my home! When I see them I think of Grandpa. What a wonderful thing to have them around to remind me of him.This shelf is down in the toy area of the house. Love it! The shelves have become a favorite of mine in my home!

Happy Family History Friday! Love, Joy
