I have been missing my grandparents as I remember them and mom has been unearthing lots of great old photos of them, so I decided to make a shrine. I used a lot of grandma's old junk jewelry, photocopies of her handwriting, and other ephemera from their lives to make this shrine. It's all golds and ivory because those are the colors that remind me of their home...grandma loved stuff that looks like this. I hope she would love this shrine, too.
