My niece dove one Summer for a week to get these clam shells off the bottom of her family lake for me. I treasure them... I mixed some of my favorite pieces of jewelry in with the shells because of the colors.
What do you have that you treasure?

When my mom was a girl she dove for these treasures too. She had a Prince Albert tobacco tin full of fresh water pearls.
What a wonderful memory Bobbie. Did she keep them her whole life? xoxo Nita
Hi Nita! beautiful picture you have today! I LOVE that song. I've heard it 100 times but never really "listened to it" I love that you wrote it at the top of your blog also "today your book begins!" love love love that!

Hi Nita, beautiful clam shells ! There are muscles here in the lake and in the summer when we go to the lake to swim, the children always like diving for them and they are so proud of their finds !
Blessings,Shelley
My mom has a couple very old metal mesh coin purses. When my daughter and niece were very young, they decided the purses must be made of mermaid skin. I wish I could add them to your treasure.

Robin: I love that song too, and I decided it would be my theme for my blog. I took the picture in the kitchen on my photo cloth. xoxo Nita
