Chicago

I come from a long line of collectors of antique weaponry, growing up with suits of armor and had my own collection of Civil War bullets. I did continue the family I come from a long line of collectors of antique weaponry, growing up with suits of armor and had my own collection of Civil War bullets. I did continue the family tradition for a while with WWI collectibles but have move onto pottery, furniture and jewelry. I absolutely love to thrift and sneak it into my schedule whenever possible. I used to have a booth at an antique mall but am now am looking for a new outlet for all my collecting. I have two great children, a lovely husband whose only flaw is that he doesn't "get" thrifting.

  2. Seriously delicate and so lovely.
  3. Oooooohhhh, aaaaahhhh, so very very pretty!!
  4. Agreed!
  5. Wow, makes me happy for yoga pants
  6. You are right, you are too too kind!
  7. See Rebessin, a mega fan! He sweet talked me into gifting mine. Silver tongued devil : ))
  8. I love how serene the colors are.
  9. All good, my photos are constantly "meh" so I do not judge. Actually thought yours weren't bad at all.
  10. Gorgeous! Bet it's fab on! She'll love it...eventually :))
  11. It's in the eyes. Something spooky there.
  12. Really nice! We have some big fans of Stromberg on this site so be prepared for some mega love ?
  13. Bet the heart stopper goes to a perfume bottle. I see mis matches taped together at the thrift all the time. I call it "arranged marriage".
  14. Love them!
  15. Hiya Ho2! I agree with the Mexican origin thought.
  16. I'm glad you included a picture as I really thought you were showing us a fancy bong! I was like "what the heck is Austro doing"?? Gotta keep that type of thing on the down low!
  17. Who is this AmberRose that you are talking about because I know I have never met her!
  18. UPDATE: trolling around the Internet tonight, I ran into vase number 2! Apparently, there is some debate whether this is Lasisepat or Dansk Floriform.
  19. V, it's my madness. I didn't realize how hot and hard to find these had become. How I always look at these but never buy them "because I'm the only one who thinks they are pretty". So it should be M...
  20. Hahahaha! Eye, you crack me up!
  21. Sweet Scotty!
  22. Actually it looks like recycled glass from Mexico. Maybe Pier One? Still adorable!
  23. MisGlass, throw a little CLR in there to clean that scale build up. Will make that amethist color pop too.
  24. Delf! Silly spell check!
  25. Deaf is my guess. Hello Brat!
  26. Phil, MisGlass, and Tony, thanks for stopping by!
  27. It fab Zowie. I've got a couple of weddings this summer...
  28. I wonder if there was a veil attached to it at one point...bridal.
  29. See...greeny.
  30. Opally is a very scientific word.
  31. Statement piece!
  32. This is what I was texting about! Will send to you
  33. You know how I love these clunkers!
  34. Aren't we legally obligated to buy anything that has "made in Sweden" on it? :))
  35. I've got that giant platter (nambe) to send to you. Text me your new address.
  36. You had me at Quan Yin! Great piece Moon. Oh, and you are super pretty both inside and out!
  37. Hello Agram...my fault for not being clear, "candy dish". All together. Candy alone is just sweets. "Candy dish" is a covered bowl. You can erase this comment.
  38. Hi Agram! I would call this a candy dish or covered dish here in the States. Personally I like candy dish as it implies...you know...candy!
  39. I haven't seen this one before, and your windshield shot was hard to see, love it. We're you expecting to see Ystad when you turned it over?
  40. Well I hope it made you smile on your blue day. I will sure ring all the bells when your package arrives! Excited! Big hug sweetie!
  41. There are advantages to being a giant :))
  42. So, too big for a ring? It could be really...okay going with, badass. Sorry, couldn't come up with the right word but you get my drift. Found a single treasure today that you might like...mostly for ...
  43. Wow, interesting. Could be old. Loving the dark side :))
  44. This is just a happy vase! I giggle just looking at it, wonderful.
  45. I'd love to see some close ups!
  46. Wow, crazy cool.
  47. http://www.rubylane.com/item/693543-Pin-Ster-9/Vintage-Sterling-Scottish-Luckenbooth-Pin
  48. Why the Scottish feeling? They have a lot of the double hearts. Crown on the heart (Mary queen of Scott's) Fletched arrow typical. But! Cant find anything that looks to be this style from Scottla...
  49. Absolutely. I will send a link to a MCM furniture friend of mine to see what he says. I am in love with these. It's the orange, I'm a sucker for orange.
  50. Oh I thought you knew there was a pink green etc and you had a specific hit list. Random hit lists work too!
