Loving the paintings that people are sharing!!
Thankfully no one has given me any piano or music related gifts, as I'm pretty particular about clutter. But last year one of the members of the chamber music workshop made us all little representations of ourselves! It was so sweet and I treasure my little pianist ❤️
I also have the cheesy trophy I got from my first piano competition, which makes for a handy bookend.
Thankfully the later competitions only gave out certificates. I don't think I would want a bunch of trophies but I probably wouldn't have the heart to throw them away. I have an RCM silver medal somewhere (Canadian provincial top score for piano exam) and that was a really big deal to me back then, maybe I should find it and put it out!
