Hudson Valley Have You Seen This Desk
In case you are wondering the desk isn t missing. I just wish I never sold it.
As someone who enjoys antiques and antiquing this time of year always has me looking back at the the pieces that got away. Maybe it s all the yard sales starting up again but more likely it is because according to the National Days Calendar (NDC) this Friday April 9th is National Cherish an Antique day. This day every year gets me thinking about the stuff I passed along.
The NDC isn t sure of the origin but they do say that the idea is to realize there is more to an antique than just a price tag. The day is designed for people to take a moment and cherish something that was handed down to them. It can also be an antique you may have bought for yourself. It is a way to keep the story that goes with the item alive.
