Rosella's Little Shop

Welcome

Thank you for taking the time to look around in my little shop!

I have always been a bit of a pack-rat, picking up pretty little rocks and keeping them in a special bowl, hiding little found treasures in drawers, I guess you could say I really don’t like to let go of things that were once special to someone.

Rosella, or Ross, was my great-aunt on my father’s side. She was a quiet woman by the time I got to know her. But then, she was in her 80’s. In her day, she would have been considered a spinster. I thought of her as a wonderful old lady, always in a lovely sweater, long white hair wrapped in a coil on her head. Sitting in a rocker with her sweet smile always in place. I have a few pictures of Aunt Ross and me. I am the one on the table in diapers. As I grew, Aunt Ross introduced me to her favorite past-time, jigsaw puzzles. Grandma and she always had a puzzle in various stages of completion on a card table in the dining room. I have that card table now. It makes me happy to think that Aunt Ross gave me my desire to take little trinkets and found treasures and put them together in unique ways to make a new item to share with you. A treasure puzzle, if you will.

Aunt Ross, this is our store…
