Well, let me tell ya, them Precious Moments bride and groom figurines, they ain’t just knick-knacks, no sirree. Folks collect ’em, see? Like them little stamps or old coins my grandson used to mess with.
I heard tell some of them figurines, the real old ones, they can be worth a pretty penny. Fifteen thousand dollars, they say! Can ya believe that? Enough to buy a new tractor, maybe even two! But it gotta be the right ones, ya know, with the special marks and all.
These little things, they’re all about gettin’ hitched, the bride and the groom, standin’ at the altar. Some got shiny little diamond-lookin’ things on ’em, twelve of ’em sometimes! Makes ’em sparkle, I guess. They call it “illuminated porcelain,” fancy words for somethin’ that just looks nice and shiny to me.
You can find all sorts of these Precious Moments. Some are just the bride and groom, some say things like “You’re My Always.” Sweet, ain’t it? Good for gifts, I reckon. Weddings, showers, that kinda thing. Folks like to give ’em to the newlyweds.
I seen some smaller ones too, just two and a half inches tall. They put ’em on top of the weddin’ cake, like a little reminder of the happy couple. They even got one that says “The Lord Bless You and Keep You.” That’s a good one, real nice and proper.
- Big ones, small ones, they got all kinds.
- Some are plain, some are fancy with the sparkly things.
- And they all got them big ol’ teardrop eyes. Kinda sad lookin’, but folks seem to like ’em.
Now, I ain’t no expert, mind you. But I know what I see. People love these things. They remind ’em of happy times, of love and marriage. Capturing life’s special memories, that’s what they say. Like them old photos in my attic, same kinda feelin’, ya know?
You can buy these figurines new, of course. They sell ’em online, in stores, everywhere. But the ones that are worth somethin’, the real valuable ones, them’s the old ones. The ones that have been passed down, kept safe in a box somewhere.
So, if you got some old Precious Moments figurines lyin’ around, don’t you go throwin’ ’em away! Take a good look at ’em. Maybe, just maybe, you got a little treasure on your hands. You never know, you might just be sittin’ on a gold mine, or at least enough to fix that leaky roof.
And if you’re lookin’ for a gift, somethin’ special for a wedding or a shower, well, a Precious Moments figurine ain’t a bad choice. They’re cute, they’re sweet, and they last a long time. Just like a good marriage, hopefully.
Anyways, that’s just my two cents. You young folks and your fancy collectin’, I tell ya. But these little things, they do make you smile, don’t they?
And remember, free shipping sometimes! That’s always a good thing, saves ya a few bucks. Every penny counts these days, that’s for sure. So whether it’s for the bride to be, or just because, these little figurines got somethin’ special about ’em.
