Merry Christmas!
Four continents that I know of. If there are members in South America or Africa they're lurking. None on Antarctica either as far as I know.
I hung snowflakes on my dining room light fixture, to be fair. The gelatin salad looks like food. NOT.
I'd say more mistreated, but whatever. I finally managed to be in two places at once! All eqivalancies to the teapot shot end there however; I...
A vintage holder; I use it to take pictures with. That one has some minor damage IIRC but it's useful for holding stuff.
Thanks. I should have thought to look there. Actually I did, but wanted to see if we couldn't smoke Mr Nate out.
Yep, twisted and stirred. It's cool enough in here that you won't get that infamous teapot shot. Well, ever. Somebody polished things up a lot...

I found a vase on the shelf in the Ill Will this week. It was sitting on a shelf by itself, looking better than what they usually get. Looked at...

I think I was already hooked in college to some extent. Found a totally hippie rhinestone ring and a Japanese wood block at a church rummage sale...
Just to throw in another wrinkle, this vase could be where Mr Webb found the design or vice versa. It wouldn't be the first time a manufacturer in...
Greetings!
It just doesn't have any "old" on it, even less on the back than the front. The back is all new, the maker's mark is all new. The clasp is wrong....
For the price I can't complain. Its fate is probably going to be the same antique dealer who bought all the vintage Christmas goodies off of me....
Got my postcard. As I said elsewhere, the fact that the creepy kid image blew right past my mother makes it just that much better.
Best I can do after dark. It's one of the little 4 inch dudes. [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Odd that they were out of garlic. I could have gotten some of the bitty fresh bulbs but those aren't proper garlic. The jarred stuff will do.
