I had a crazy thrift day today. I found this piece sitting with all the florist vases. It was filthy dirty, had obviously been sitting in an attic or garage somewhere. I think it is carnival glass but could use some help from the glass gods. Thanks and I am so excited!

Well you just moved and got cut off from the Internet there for a while. Enough yo make anyone take a knee.
I didnt just take a knee, I kneeled all the way down! lol Still being without a phone makes me a little nervous. We will have one soon though. Thats the price you pay for solitude in the country. Love it here other than that!
