"N" is for Nostalgia

"N" is for Nostalgia


Dear Friends.
"N" is for Nostalgia. One of the reasons people begin collecting is a fondness of an era or childhood memory. It may be a toy, a book, a sign or souvenir from a place they visited, their mother's china or a tool from grandpa's farm. Whatever the reason the item resonates with something inside. Incorporating it into their home reflects who they are. Here are some photos of nostalgia that the Sweet Gang brought in for the Raw and Ref-Find Event.
