TBT: A Second Look



 Good morning!


Borrowing from a years-old post: 
"Last week I went looking for something in a bankers box, sealed since October 2001.  One box.  Then, things snow-balled.  On the bright side, we've enough bubble wrap to last the rest of our natural lives."

(Obviously, that was written before our cross-country move!)

If you're a fan of estate sales, no doubt you've seen tables-full of crystal-cut glassware ... largely ignored.  Even my parents had little use -- or space -- for their wedding presents.  

All these years, good old Homemade Guilt's kept me from discarding mother's collection.  (I'll let my son worry about that after I'm gone ... lol!)   I don't have a 'style', but sadly it isn't cut-glass.     

What to do?  Well, each morning I've begun to use the water glasses that used to reside on my parents dining room table:


Re-purposing others ...
Dollar Store 'junior' toothpaste = perfect fit!


Yes, Tom carefully drilled holes in the 'dough' bowl.



*sigh*


For now, the large bowls remain cloistered.
... but the sherbet set still bugs me.
Any takers?
