While out sailing on the lake...
...er I mean sale~ing...
yard sale~ing with a friend...
I came across this gigantic old glass jar.
It stands 15 inches high and is 10 inches across its widest part.
It was marked $1.00
My kind of bargain.
When I got it home, I filled it with lace.
All kinds of lace.
A lot of which I got from my friend Evi, the dollmaker.
You may remember, several years ago...
after a lovely luncheon she held...
she had been de-stashing and she shared her piles...
and I mean piles...of lace
with Paula, Carole, Debbie and I.
Oh did we have fun!
What's left and other lace tid bits of my own
are now housed in this old jar!
While going through my laces I also found
part of what must have been a lace sleeve...maybe.
I slipped it over my French green La Lorraine canning jar
and it fit perfectly!
A late afternoon dalliance after a full day of painting!
My Dad and I have been working on the kitchen cabinets
for a week now. I hope I don't wear him out...
for a week now. I hope I don't wear him out...
I know I'm tired and he's 25 years older.
Anyway, another beautiful day has come to an end.
Tomorrow, the forecast is for rain.
Maybe I will get down to the booth at Schoolhouse Treasures
to add a few new things!
