What do you nick-nacks say about you ?

Er, I must confess that my lack of a lot of knick knacks as such just says I’m a thoroughly lazy baggage when it comes to dusting!
Quite a few framed photos of dds and Gdcs, though. And one of our old dog on her very last day with us. ?

Oops, forgot the carriage clock!

Who? Me ? What carriage clock blue

A metronome, 2 glass Wedgewood candlestick holders, 2 sitting cats, clock, ceramic silver model of DH holding DGS1's hand, 2 Mother's Day cards (DS self isolating with symptoms), ornament of grandparents with male and female child gazing at them.
Hearth - toy garage and Little Tykes farm.

Don’t know what it says really, I just love antiques and anything beautiful.

Cat ornament, bottle clock, Rubik puzzle, Chinese puzzle box, 2 Whitby lucky ducks, 3 photos in frames.

and a whole lot of dust

Three potted plants, a Mother's Day card, a carved wooden box with various useful bits and pieces in it (nail clippers, emery boards, tweezers etc.) - and a lovely bronze stag ornament that I kept out after Christmas.

Not aimed at you Oopsadaisy3! Oops as in oops I forgot something!

Oh oops!

Vase from Russia, soapstone figurine from china, wooden elephant carving from India, memories of our travels. Plus a clock the kids gave us for our silver wedding - next year it's golden!

I also do not have a mantle but on the dresser in the hallway I have 2 fancy oil lamps, a crochet doily, 6 purple bottles with lights in them, candles, a container of toothpicks and 3 dragons
So I am not sure what that says about me

I don't have a mantlepiece as I live on a narrow boat. This is one corner. I am at a loss as to what it says about me...hahahaha

An antique carriage clock that I inherited from my sister, a photo of my daughter, a ballerina made from (what's that porcelain that's like lace), and small vase from a memorable holiday in Venice.

missfoodlove I have a white room with a fireplace and guard almost identical! Are we sisters? I have a Dartington glass vase with freesias that have lasted almot two weeks, four Mother's Day cards, and an antique clock with a soothing deep melodious chime.

And the mirror too - this is quite alarming!

My nick nacks say that we are stuck partway through doing the room and that we haven't decided what to put on it.

And, I have 5 children!

A vase of daffodils (fading fast), and four pieces of gold/beige iridescent Gozo glass - an empty vase; 2 smaller vases; and a pot - to remind me of holidays in the sun.

Flowery bits !

A carved wooden candlestick, (plain white candle) & a matching box containing playing cards.

Mine has a silver mantle clock, 2 small candles and 2 photos of my daughter and son's wedding.

I collect Chinese ginger jars so have 5 different sized ones on the mantel and 3 on the hearth, there is also a collection of 3 blue and white Chinese tea pots, and 3 Mother’s Day cards

The April page of a calendar. May as well rip that up

Love your cherubs Coconut they're beautiful.

I've been in my new-build for about seven years so didn't have a mantelpiece. I waited for Lidl to stock their self-assembly version which now takes pride of place. In the centre there's a pretty pink clock with rose design, a pair of white and brown cat ornaments and a blue and white teapot with Union flag sticking out of the spout and a matching vase with hand made fabric tulips.
I'm not techie enough to post a picture.

Rosina, Hi, I guess the style is classic Victorian.
The walls are actually “Rolling Fog”.
It’s a calm room without any TV or radio, mobile phones are not allowed in there either.
With a fire going and the clock chiming it’s a joy, we socialise, read and relax in there.

I don’t have a mantelpiece, but I have a long coffee table against one wall to hold the things that used to be on display in my former, much bigger house. They are all nostalgic items.

A photo of my parents and brother and I going to a wedding in 1950.

A marquetry clock bought at a craft fair in Ludlow many years ago.

Very small china cats, and a blue glass cat.

Things belonging to my grandmother and great aunt - a pink crystal and silver perfume bottle, an art nouveau silver-lidded hairpin box (no hairpins!), a mother-of-Pearl case for visiting cards, and my favourite - a plate from an Edwardian doll’s teaset, white china with lilac blossoms.

A miniature coach and horses acquired at the time of the Queen’s coronation.

3 very small glass swans, one wearing a crown.

Two little pieces of Copenhagen porcelain.

A silver-plated walnut.

Is that enough? Every one of them means something.
