Monthly Archives: April 2010 I love handkerchiefs. I bought five or six at one of the estate sales I went to two Saturdays ago. This brings my current hankie collection to approximately 2,195. This is about a fourth of what I have! Some scans of some of my favorites… I think handkerchiefs are one of the most obvious symbols...  So, that warehouse sale where I got the Welcome sign had a few other cool finds. The cloche on the left is big and, I think, hand blown. There are no seams, there is bubbling, and the handle has a weird dimple on it. Does that mean it’s hand blown? The bird cage is pretty...  I can’t stop buying jars. With lids, preferably. More apothecary jars, blue Ball jars, and — look at the little jar with the floral lid and the cut glass perfume jar! Those last two came from that same estate sale I’ve been talking about — remember, I told you I carried out a garbage bag...  At the estate sale where I got the linens, there was a ton of sewing stuff…which, as we all know, I love. Everything was pretty much a mess by the time we got there, and I had a lot of fun rooting through the remains. I found this cool needlepoint sewing box: I knew there...  Over the last couple of weeks I’ve added to my plate collection. I’ve given myself free reign to buy plates since I’ve got several projects in mind for them: wall clocks, tiered cake plates, and those plain old single cake plates I made earlier. Of course, there is a difference between planning to do something... |
