Most people collect memories along with the many special pieces of kitchen or dining room decorations. The story behind this or that item might be long and involved. Some of the stories might simply relate to why they’ve come to own the item in the first place.
We aren’t always shopping for curio decor, but when something we see either reminds us of an event or possibly someone we know, it becomes special. If a miniature tea set brings back memories of someone special in our lives we usually purchase this as a gift. When the memory strikes closer to home, the set usually follows us back there.
