Capodimonte!

OkayOkay....who remembers these? (Tone I know you do!!)

Gotta love these old school Italian favors. And chances are..if you're italian...your mother has tons of these trinkets from weddings!!

Anyone remember them?

I am not Italian, but my mom does have a curio FULL of these favors! I used to love looking at them as a child. I say, bring it back if you'd like

OH Geez no...we're not doing these. We're doing something along the lines of wines or espresso.

I just thought I'd post this because Toni reminded me of them the other day and how popular they used to be!! I mean people have oodles of these!!

I was actually waiting for Santina and Francesca to duke it out and see which household has more!!!

I had something similar to this when I was younger. It was three capodamante roses on a log. I had so many nick-nacks in my room!

if I remember , everytime we went near them we got scolded , dont touch, meanwhile, they were so sharp it poked the heck outta ya,

& the seat covers , my god , my grandfather had, I usta sit on the floor hated it,, LOL

Ya know what , I have one aunt or two who still is trapped in those days




as time went on though, we upgraded to the fancier ones , they were shinny & not dull

Oh boy, do remember those...we still have them. As a matter of fact, we still have a large statue of a woman on a pedestal that went along with all those. I wish I had a pic...

Th eplastic on the couches? Classis...nothing like ripping your skin off everytime you wanted to get up from the couch.
