How to Make Gravestone Rubbings

How to Make Gravestone Rubbings | Visiting The Past | Scoop.it
From www.squidoo.com - November 7, 2013 12:48 AM
I don't know what it is about the Hobby of Gravestone Rubbing. Maybe it is being in a cemetery that brings a since of excitement, or maybe it is taking down a little piece of history, hopefully your family's history.
Deanna Dahlsad's insight:

Cool for collectors and genealogists alike!

Antiques as Souvenirs

Antiques as Souvenirs | Visiting The Past | Scoop.it
From www.tagsellit.com - March 28, 2013 6:06 PM

Tourists have collected travel kitsch since the Crusaders plundered their way through the Holy Land.  Postcards, pennants, shot glasses, spoons, as well as,  a plethora of other items have topped the list of must haves from exotic and pastoral locales. These items are readily available at estate sales as they lose their meaning once their purchaser has passed. I have a different take on souvenir purchases; I try to find an antique or vintage piece that I can use and enjoy in my home decor.
