Carry It With Us

Though we travel the world over to find the beautiful, we must carry it with us or we find it not. 
 ~Ralph Waldo Emerson

This is 1/3 of my Mother's found object collection, treasures that she saved, from all over the world. She taught her grandchildren the names of the rocks, shells and coral that filled a large basket that covered her coffee table.
