I am so excited to see all the old things coming back. Old fashioned diners with a real soda fountain are so cool. I love to get a “real milkshake” at one. Nothing tastes better. One of our customers refurbishes Airstream campers and uses materials that take it back to the original look. We still have a few old linoleum styles to choose from but they are quite expensive. It isn’t always easy to find those things.

I can remember seeing dice hanging from the windshields of cars. People always had their children’s baby shoes treated with bronzing to keep them for displaying in their curio cabinet or atop the dresser in their bedroom. The tradition of receiving your bronze keepsakes when starting your own family was a treasured one. There is a website where you can have your baby’s shoes bronzed and make a keepsake that will be cherished for a lifetime. It is very affordable and ABC Bronze is having a special internet price for the next month. They also have an offer where if you send in 4 pair to be bronzed, they only charge to bronze 3 pair. So call your friends and get an order together. They have a 100% satisfaction guarantee on their bronzing. I am so glad they are bringing back the old traditions.

I know that we have new traditions with making scrapbooks of our children’s milestones. I still like some of the old traditions like having hope chests and bronzing baby shoes. It is good to have those traditions too.
