This is not an illustration from a vintage book.
It is a "touched up" photo of my sentimental "vignette."
The child's chair was my aunt's. I bought it at her daughter's yard sale.
The bear was a gift to my son on his first Christmas, over 21 years ago.
I made the hat on the bear for my son, to keep the sun off his fair skin. He has outgrown the bear and the hat.
The porcelain baby doll was a gift from my Mom, who bought it at a yard sale, and gave it to me during a visit at my sister's camp. It was the last doll my Mom gave me.
The rag doll was in my friend's stuff that was left behind when her family moved out of the house where she had her last illness.
Sentimental, aren't I?
