I love love love the look of vintage table cloths but until recently the only ones I had were embroidered bridge cloths from my Mom and a very stained Christmas topper. I wanted something with more colors in it to show off my depression glass and went out special to find just the right table [...]

You may have noticed I’ve posted less the last few weeks. That’s because Dave and I are moving and there is a lot to pack and organize. Dave is an artist and if you have a vision of a rather unkempt work area, that’s pretty accurate. He’s spending his time cleaning his studio (and discovering [...]

I had a lot of fun this weekend playing mix and match with depression glass and the vintage tablecloths I got antiquing with Deidra. One in this blog is to show you how how to use your glass to best effect whether you have many pieces or just a few. Georgian Lovebirds is one of [...]

Has it been hot where you live? We had a couple weeks of 90+ degrees, 90% humidity and no air conditioning. It’s time to cool off with a green depression glass tablescape, this one featuring my favorite Cameo. I love the pattern with the dancer reaching for the sky. It radiates hope. I used the [...]

Is this Georgian Lovebirds saucer real depression glass or is it a repro? It is not marked. This next saucer is marked. I have Georgian cups, saucers and sherbets with the Federal F in a shield and without. Are any reproduced? There are web pages that claim that any unmarked Federal piece is a repro. [...]

Welcome to this week’s Fancy Fun Friday! Today we’re showing something our grandmothers would have used to make their kitchen bright and appealing. Isn’t this neat? It’s a measuring cup and it has a ledge so it could hold a reamer. Compare this to the plain glass measuring pitchers you have in your cupboard today. [...]

You know those helpful articles with time saving tips? They always say to cook enough for meals in advance and never ever use the term “left over”? Well…. that’s what I’m doing today. It’s a “planned over”, not a “left over”. You remember the table from a few weeks ago with Cameo green and yellow [...]

Let’s set the table to look like a daffodil in spring. This rainbow table is my favorite depression glass pattern, Cameo, in yellow and green. I love how the pattern looks in green and adding yellow just adds joy. Doesn’t that dancer look like she is dancing for happiness? This time I switched out the [...]

This week Beverly opened Pink Saturday to other colors and here we’re looking at a Fostoria green console bowl. This is the Versailles etch which I like more now than when I first saw it. Fostoria Versailles is a formal pattern, the center motif is a fan surrounded by scrolls. The scalloped shapes and beautiful [...]

I have a confession to make. I was cropping photos for today’s tablescape of a very pretty rainbow depression glass table when it dawned on me. I used these before! That left me without photos and no time to get the glass, set the table, take the pictures and write this post. So we’re [...]
