Color of the Day is Copper

We are on Day 22 of the Color of the Day Challenge. I know immediately what I was going to share for the Color of the Day is Copper.

YES, a shiny copper penny that my mom sent down from heaven. This was the penny I found just before our 50th wedding anniversary on July 29, 2017. It’s extra special because the year of the penny is 2017 also! I carried this penny, along with other special memories from my mom and dad to the church when we renewed our vows. http://themarthareview.com/pennies-from-heaven/

Everytime I find a penny, I look above and tell my mom I love her. I would save all her pennies in a jar and last year I made her a Mother’s Day gift out of them.

I spray painted a piece of plywood, drew a heart on it and glued the pennies from heaven that mom tossed down around the heart. My mom loved flowers so I added a border of our dried roses around the heart. The frame I painted yellow to surround the heart with sunshine. Oh and by the way, I found the frame in the dumpster last year! This is the blog I wrote write after Mother’s Day last year. http://themarthareview.com/pennies-from-heaven/

From pennies to ammo! A few of the different copper tip bullets we have.

When coming up with copper ideas I forgot all about our variety of copper tip ammo.

Yes back to the garden for a bit more copper! This is a copper water sprinkler that is used as a decoration in Lia’s Garden.

So pennies from heaven, copper tip ammo to a copper garden decoration, that about covers the Color of the Day is Copper for me!
