The floral <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">bouquet</span> card is a postcard. The cross and the eggs are both small about 2.5"x4". I found them in a stack of papers from an estate sale.

These are a few of my favorites. The small gold coin purse has a tag inside saying it was made in West Germany. The lining is perfect and there are rhinestones on the ends of the clasps. The white purse has metal handles and is covered with beads and rhinestones. It was made in <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Hong</span> Kong. And the blue one is an eye glass case, with an optometrist's name and address inside.

Here is a photo of the two glass lots I bought. Unless the weather is bad, I unpack all my auction boxes outside (have found bugs before). I only had to throw away three pieces that were too badly damaged to be salvaged. The tall green glasses remind me of the 70s. Didn't every household have some of them?Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11009015433898287336noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2160595515331787566.post-11628873034836040672010-02-18T01:02:00.000-08:002010-02-19T00:02:10.820-08:00Anniversary Tea Cup<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S35FYkxzQAI/AAAAAAAAA9U/5GLzzd7o_k8/s1600-h/LinkBadge-8.png"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 150px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 150px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439861688401870850" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S35FYkxzQAI/AAAAAAAAA9U/5GLzzd7o_k8/s200/LinkBadge-8.png" /></a> I went to an auction Wednesday for the first time in months. Auctions are so much fun; digging for treasures, the thrill of winning the bid, getting bargains! This anniversary tea cup was one of my wins. I also got some glassware, linens and some interesting things in a junk lot (they called it five boxes of "knick knacks").<br /><br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S30CXz_SddI/AAAAAAAAA9E/uHSe-yCSp30/s1600-h/February+17+2010+019.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 278px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439506533049333202" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S30CXz_SddI/AAAAAAAAA9E/uHSe-yCSp30/s320/February+17+2010+019.jpg" /></a> Be sure to head over to <a href="http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/">Colorado Lady's</a> blog to check out the other entries for this weeks Vintage thingies Thursday.Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11009015433898287336noreply@blogger.com18tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2160595515331787566.post-50156618716991167262010-02-16T20:38:00.000-08:002010-02-16T20:40:23.465-08:00Tummy Tuesday<div align="center"> Copper showing off his tummy "fluff":<img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 249px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439067490620564162" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S3tzELfQYsI/AAAAAAAAA88/LR_6Q7w7ce0/s400/Feb+2010+003.jpg" /></div>Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11009015433898287336noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2160595515331787566.post-19557428740389300202010-02-14T18:58:00.001-08:002010-02-16T20:41:17.900-08:00Happy Valentine's Day<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S3i4j_5E9oI/AAAAAAAAA80/MmvKDLBzjjs/s1600-h/February+14+2010+002.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 259px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438299478635640450" border="0" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S3i4j_5E9oI/AAAAAAAAA80/MmvKDLBzjjs/s400/February+14+2010+002.jpg" /></a><br /><div></div>Debbiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11009015433898287336noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2160595515331787566.post-51741469935877038752010-02-13T13:17:00.000-08:002010-02-16T20:41:04.719-08:00moo<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S3cXL-aXxTI/AAAAAAAAA8s/ZgYUD2iRvbY/s1600-h/February+12-13+2010+021.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 240px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5437840569572771122" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S3cXL-aXxTI/AAAAAAAAA8s/ZgYUD2iRvbY/s320/February+12-13+2010+021.jpg" /></a> Copper LOVES eating kitty grass!

I don't think Tigger cared that I was gone because she was still getting food and attention. But Bitsey and Copper missed me. Since I have been home, they have been staying close and giving me lots of love.<br /><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20Qy2FCbtI/AAAAAAAAA8E/KWMziNBBHBk/s1600-h/Feb+2010+026.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435018791002205906" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20Qy2FCbtI/AAAAAAAAA8E/KWMziNBBHBk/s320/Feb+2010+026.jpg" /></a> .<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br /><br />The first week of January, I joined family for a short cruise to Mexico to celebrate my brother's 5oth birthday. It was the first time I had been on a cruise and thankfully the motion sickness medicine worked!<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20Rwzv8T9I/AAAAAAAAA8M/mbLup-siGJo/s1600-h/cruise+2010+024.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435019855528742866" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20Rwzv8T9I/AAAAAAAAA8M/mbLup-siGJo/s320/cruise+2010+024.jpg" /></a> .<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />.<br />The biggest percent of my time away was spent in Tennessee with family. It rained most of the time I was there and one day there were snow flurries. I enjoyed visiting with family, looking through old books, photos, family history papers etc. As usual, we enjoyed a meal at the <a href="http://northshorebrasserie.com/">Northshore Brasserie</a>. They have the best French Onion Soup and profiteroles. And of course, no trip anywhere is complete without a visit to the local scrapbook stores. Scrappin in the City is in an old Victorian house complete with fireplaces, wood floors etc. They were very nice and had a great selection of products. And I have to admit that I also visited AC Moore and Joann's!<br /><br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20U_2FpFlI/AAAAAAAAA8U/EhNPTBJz46U/s1600-h/s500_0016.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 139px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435023412389549650" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20U_2FpFlI/AAAAAAAAA8U/EhNPTBJz46U/s200/s500_0016.jpg" /></a><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20VSz9AixI/AAAAAAAAA8c/MFsdXWpnlSk/s1600-h/untitled.bmp"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: right; HEIGHT: 134px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5435023738233981714" border="0" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_b-tbUHvy_74/S20VSz9AixI/AAAAAAAAA8c/MFsdXWpnlSk/s200/untitled.bmp" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I had so much fun in January but I missed my cats.
