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. If you remember this tablescape featuring Swirl teal and pink depression glass accented with Fostoria Lido stemware, you know I’ve been combining [...]

I believe you will enjoy vintage glassware on your table even if you have just a piece or two. Most of my glass customers buy pieces to add to what they got from family so they have enough to use. Many combine patterns and colors and use what they love, whether it is all [...]

Every time I see pink and teal it reminds me of the bright beach side homes in Florida. Seeing as how it snowed – yes, snowed – yesterday here in Michigan that memory of warm sandy beaches is delightful! This weekend was experiment time with combining glass colors and putting elegant glass with depression glass. [...]

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 [...]

This week for Pink Saturday we have the Mayfair Open Rose pink depression glass dinner plate. Hocking made a ton of pieces in Mayfair but the plates are a bit harder to find than in some patterns. Mayfair is another depression glass pattern where the dinner plate is smaller than today’s big sizes. It’s just [...]

I admit it. I am vain. When we shot the video showing how we pack glass so it ships to you in one piece the ending showed my wonderful waistline – of which there is too much. I retook the ending and posted the update on YouTube. Here is a link to the video for [...]
