Anne, welcome! I wish I could help with your beads, but I'm afraid I can't. I must ask, however, how is Northernridge? It's been quite a while...
You know, Greg, I've long wondered about those white knob things. My Mom worked for Ethan Allen for many years, and I remember all of their...
Thanks, Judy! I like it most of all because of the absolutely delightful people who gave it to me. Both Mom and daughter (who was 8,) were...
I've been meaning to ask about this here for a while now. Back when I lived in CT, I sponsored a Chinese professor & her young daughter when they...
Komo, it's always possible, but I don't think so. I wish I could have found a photo of the entire "youth set" in this pattern. It's possible that...
Tyeldom, Star Trek and all that aside, I do see similarities to this pendant, listed on Ruby Lane. Not the same, but somewhat similar (?):...
You are most welcome!

Thanks, Owned. I don't know how they got in that box with all the military stuff, but I'm certainly glad they did! (Of course, as previously...
What do they call that thing? Is it a regulator, or is that a different part? [ATTACH]
Yes, a bubble blower pendant! There are lots of them out there (check eBay & Etsy.) I believe that even Tiffany had a version. I seem to recall...
Don, it is awfully cute! (Would make a great, easy-to-carry souvenir, or a gift to take home to someone!) I do believe it's Orrefors. Here's the...

Terry, I think they're delightful! I have some pewter ones I bought in Norway. They're not exactly the same, but the idea is similar. Most of...
Bev, there's an interesting discussion on Etsy about how to/whether to clean vintage Barbie doll clothes:...
Lovely, R. Simply lovely!
