Finds!

My latest
antique finds!
This is the Grapevine pattern from Pyrex.  It's got the beautiful Delphite Blue inside and on the bottom.  It's from the 60's and is the small bowl to a chip and dip set.

This is fun.  It is a tape moistener!

You can load a roll of tape to it, fill the basin with water and roll the tape over the roller to moisten it.

It's super heavy!  The base is cast iron.

This one is all mine!  A Willow Oak water tray.  I was lucky to find it for only $4.00!

Another piece of cubist.  I love how this washed up and sparkles.  Only $2.00!

I found another candy container!  A sailboat.  I guess once the candy was gone, you can use this for an ashtray.  No, Humpty isn't included!

Vintage Finds Continued . . .

I love old glass!  Filled with imperfections.  This used to hold an ink bottle but I think it can be used for so many other things, like paperclips, rings, jewelry of all types etc.  It has some great old bubbles and a straw mark in it.  Um, might have to keep it.
This definitely is mine, all mine!  A perfect example of EAPG.  It is sun purpled, which some people prefer to stay away from, but not me, I love it even more.  I might even use this for its intended purpose, spoons!
A Bakelite handled strainer spoon and table doily, found some nice linens in the new shop!
These look almost like a child did them!  Maybe a first cross stitch project.
I love this set!  They aren't dirty, you are just seeing shadows.
Another metal file box.  I guess I'm collecting these!  I found it at my first stop for only $3.00 and it came in handy on this trip!  I filled it to the top with smalls.
I found this at a flea market.  It's a glass baseball that I'm pretty sure used to hold candy.
The tag on it says "Souvenir of Atlantic City" and the base has a slot so you can use it as a bank now.
Some fun, funky things I picked up at a few antique shops.  The cat and mouse letter holder is a howl!  Another single bowling trophy, I seem to find a lot of these in this area of the state!  And lastly, a Bakelite handled corn stripper.

Stay tuned for more!
