Here’s an all-pink table for those of you who love this color (and that is a lot of you!). I like the way the pink glass pulls together a table, it’s almost effortless. You don’t need a centerpiece or much else to make a table with all pink depression glass sing. This is one of [...]

Homespun. Doesn’t that make you think of Little House on the Prairie and pioneers? Here’s a new way to think of Homespun: pink depression glass from Jeannette. You can see the pattern is different from Jeannette’s other depression glass designs. Homespun has thin ribs and a waffle texture on the centers. The ribs do look a [...]

Thank you for visiting with us this Thursday! If you’ve read my recent tablescapes you’ve seen that I’m playing around with mixing and matching different glass patterns. It’s fun. Since most of us don’t have complete sets of vintage glass patterns, it is real to life. Today we’re using three patterns that play well together. [...]

When you were a kid did you ever make an atrocious rhyme (on par with Drink in Pink), then laugh like a hyena and go around saying “I’m a poet and you didn’t know it”? Maybe you were more literary than we were – or maybe you enjoyed bad puns instead. Anyway. Today’s Pink Saturday [...]

Welcome to Tablescape Thursday! I appreciate Susan hosting this fun event each week. It’s made me think about how you would use vintage glass on your table. I hope you enjoy these too.

Floragold fans seem split whether this is depression glass or carnival glass or glass from the 1950s. Here’s why. Pattern Motif: Flowers all over. Depression Glass style. Glass [...]

Are you looking to lose weight? One of the tried and true methods is to reduce portion sizes – which never sounds like fun but it works. It’s a lot easier to eat less when you have a plate that looks full for some reason. During the depression people rarely had to worry about eating [...]
