It's really for Annie-Dog during the day since we don't usually run the a/c while we're at work (not that we've needed it much this summer!). I like the idea of the ribbons, but our timid dog would probably be afraid of them. She's afraid of the camera and oven (gas).

I'm quite sure the fans of my childhood were metal and I don't recall grills. I think the party idea is a great one - I've never heard of it but what a great way to really show the past. Of course those of us who don't keep things would be at a loss to display items. :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-27174130894078775672009-07-29T06:41:54.950-04:002009-07-29T06:41:54.950-04:00My grandmother featured a display of old interesti...My grandmother featured a display of old interesting things at a big birthday party-maybe her 85th. One of the things she featured was a fan that my Grandfather purchased to cool her off during labor. She was the first in the neighborhood to have such a fan. It doesn't have a safety grill.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13718731023662212448noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-8082618093026409122009-07-29T02:33:43.545-04:002009-07-29T02:33:43.545-04:00Ooh!

I'd totally copy you and tie some onto my bedroom fan if I didn't fear it would encourage our three cats to become interested in something I'd prefer they continue to ignore.spritehttp://www.spritewrites.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-84039714400002618552009-07-28T20:37:29.062-04:002009-07-28T20:37:29.062-04:00What a great idea.
