This is a photo of a shell I have had sitting in my room for a while. I love collecting shells whenever I am walking along the beach. They remind me of happy times, when I was near a lake or ocean. I always look for shells when I am with my family, so shells are also a reminder of family time. I thought this shell was beautiful because of its intricate detailing and all of the ridges it has!

This is a photograph of a mug from my family's collection. For a few years now, we have always made a point to purchase a mug from every destination we visit! We have collected mugs from all over the world! These mugs remind me of our family's travels. Also, they remind me of cozy times when I was at home sipping hot chocolate out of them!

Rememberance

This collar is a very sentimental object to me. It belonged to my late best friend: a cat named Flea. It has been 3 years since we had to put him to sleep. This collar gives me some comfort since he wore it up to his last days. My family thinks it is funny how matted and fuzzy his collar has become. We still don't know what he did to it to make it look like that!!
This snow globe is one of the many snow globes I have collected over the years. I love shaking the globes and watching the glitter fall and finally come to rest. The detailing in each globe is incredible! Each one has a tiny city inside of it. Picturing the snow globe was a little difficult. It was hard to find angles that really captured its simplicity and beauty all at once.
This is a picture of my pointe shoes. Pointe is a type of ballet dance that I did for about 5 years. Although dance is and always has been my passion, dancing on point is very painful and difficult. As you can tell, the shoes are pretty beat up...much like my feet! Even though this type of dancing was physically draining, I am glad I was exposed to such beauty and grace.
