Alphabe Thursday … B is for Bell (s)

May 30, 2013

B is for bell or my little collection of bells that I have bought over the years to decorate the house at Christmas.Since I don’t celebrate Xmas quite so much these days I have left these hanging strategically so they ring as I go in and out of the back door. They probably drive the neighbours to distraction but I like them! I am not sure of their origin; one or two are cowbells and worn by goats or sheep so that they are heard if they wander off.  The others are probably made in the style of ‘whatever’ and sold at an inflated price to foolish collectors like myself!!

    they are so pretty. I like bells too and they are placed strategically around the house. One used to be on the sliding back door, for the doggie to ring (now they have a doggie door). One is above the front door, where we can hear if someone comes in – my DH’s idea. {:-Deb

    I like bells also and have a few on my doors. It’s nice to hear them tinkle…

    What a cool collection…

    I really like all the different types of bells you have. I bet they all have a unique sound to them.

    Brilliant post for the letter B.

    Thanks for linking.

    A+
