This is my grandmother, Minne Edmonds. At the time of this picture she was in her 90's. Born in 1912 and survived the great depression, and all the world wars. She lived to be 101 years old. She was a great cook and saved every recipe she could get her hands on.  She worked for the forestry for many many years.   She was a big crafter and loved to work with beads. She liked to make earrings and had an eye for her own designed.  We sat down with her to make these bead ornaments, It was such a fun time!
