Even More Finds!

People seem to crave vintage Tupperware in the old colors!  These are mugs lids or coasters.
I have seen a lot of these dishes, mostly out of the boxes.  This person has a funny sense of humor!
Tupperware canister in green with mushrooms!
Brown Tupperware canister pieces:
This piece is all mine.  I just love EAPG and won't give this one up, at least, not yet!
A wonderful wallpaper border that I got for .35 cents!  Now I have to find something to do with it.  I'm thinking about large tags with the hearts and sew some buttons on them.  Any ideas?
Now, this is someone so proud of their bowling trophies!  Even had a rack made for his pins!
If you scroll down, you'll see one of these in black that is missing pieces.  I can't believe I found another one but in the butterscotch color!  This is the hardest of the colors to find!
I am a bit out of my comfort zone with this one.  I spent more on it than I normally would consider but it just seemed like the thing to do!
Maybe it's the silliness of how they look when they are all hanging on the rack.
Yep, it's a chicken spice rack.
I love this set of buttons with matching slide.  It's a shame I can't get a photo showing the wonderful colors!
Two costume jewelry pins:
One more day to come!

Antique Spree - Part I

I went antique shopping for a long weekend and had a blast. I was able to come home with some pretty fun items this time!
I came across a shop with older Pez dispensers for only $1.00 each! Nothing really exciting but one of those dispensers is a Witch with stenciled stem!
See how the stem has a printed patent number instead of the regular embossed patent? That's known as a stenciled stem, the other side has the stencil of the country of origin. This is actually a 3.9 witch but has 4.9 stenciled on it.
It seemed to be a great weekend for my air fresheners and cotton ball holders! Three of them in all!
This is one I didn't have and is a cotton ball holder, most people say they are cactus planters.
This one is an Airwick air freshener, see the smaller hole? I had this color before but it's fun to get variations such as this one with the big glob of something under the glazing. It was cheap enough and down inside it, is an original wick that I have to get out of there.
Another air freshener and again, I had this color but this one has such a nice clean finish to it, my other one has a crack.

Found a bunch of plastic buckles.


I have more to report, but will continue you finds in another post. Does anyone else go antique shopping?
