... my milk glass collection ♥


The latest and greatest addition to my collection -  a flowery egg shaped candy dish made by Avon I saw it one weekend and resisted it.... it was still there the next weekend - clearly it was meant to be  =) only $3.  (am I the only one who LOVES this? )   and the the little votive I picked up for $.99


on the left is one of the 2 Fire King fancy baking dish of some-kind? I use them to contain small plants) the o n the right I picked up at a rummage sale in Kenosha  $1  again not sure of its intended use, but I use it to corral miscellaneous stuff on the mantel...


the other smaller Fire King - and isn't that plant cool - it is a Silver Philodendron...  yes, need to re-pot that one! 

and MY most most favorite - I got a of  pair of these at a rummage sale benefiting a local environmental group.. they didn't have a price....   I'm not a haggler.... so, I walked away with the awesome white ceramic frog toothbrush holder I found  ...  they called me back...  I asked - they said $8.... I hemmed... they told me that are Fenton and I said and well it is for a a good cause right - I'll take them!   I do LOVE them. (early the next day they had an everything must go give away - that's when I got the Fire King =) 


This was my first!  from my sisters wedding =) 

Last but not least - another little vase...

monday...


It has been a while… spent Saturday morning cleaning out the basement... (how did we end up with SO much STUFF!!??!) and loading of the car with Goodwill donations…   now I could not stop myself from stepping inside for a quick peek, totally missed the 50% off everything sign (except new stiff) the place was trashed!! woo hoo ~ I did find 2 milk glass hobnail tumblers $.25 for the two of them! yes, white & frosted hobnail is my new ♥    I also, found a cute and roommy cream purse made of
pretty convincing pleather for $1.50 and a washable feather pillow for my fabulous cover I got a couple weeks ago for $1 it came with a cover that will look quite nice on our  bed - double bonus - yAY! 

  
ok, so… then I went back & loaded up (more STUFF in the shed!?!?!)...  so of course  went back in =)   picked up the little milk glass bowl I passed up earlier  $.25  and COMFY  night shirt $1.50..  last but not least a pampered chef tool turn-about  only $1.00 ~ a white one (I have a black one in the kitchen that I LOVE)  but this will will be used to organize "office" supplies - sweet =D  

Sunday was a YUCK fest…  end. 

Anyway, I survived Monday although I almost failed to get a “funny” one for my Photo a Day – just that kinda day… until I was ALMOST home…   maybe because I had to pee since Chicago, perhaps I was overtired, or quite possibly because I am just juvenile… LOL!  

Day 19 - funny


hmmm...  a car that runs on pee - Brilliant!!   ok now all you little geniuses out there, go figure out a way to make ot happen  =)
