    There's no way I'd be able to wear any of these, even if I wanted to lol. They're all so short. I just collect them. Antique buckles, too. I don't know why I like them so much. I think I might eventually make a belt for my cloisonne buckle.

    That is a gorgeous buckle!! :happy::happy:

    I know what you mean. The days of the tiny waist ended for me about 40 years ago when I got pregnant with my second baby never to be seen again. ;):p:p:eek::eek: :hilarious::hilarious::hilarious:

    Found these little jars (and the painting) at a flea market. $10 for the jars which I’m thinking 50’s - so more vintage than antique. Some crazing and a good accumulation of grime that must have taken some time to accumulate: -). But it’s just a guess. The painting is recent but lovely and looks nice with the jars. It was $8.

    please excuse me being mid-painting on the new bookshelf :)

    One guess - you're in Texas or close to it? That painting looks like bluebonnets.

    They do look like that a bit :) The artist is from CA but she may have lived/visited other places and seen bluebonnets

    That's cool! I never would have thought it was anything special, had to look it up. Wow! The things I learn about in this forum!

    I do like Bitossi.

    I could not haggle this down, but nor could I resist it.

    Posted this postcard in another thread but don't think it will get many views there. It is of an early baseball stadium in Cincinnati where a mound visit in the infield is taking place. Postmarked 1908. Purchased at an antique mall so the pricing was retail, however it is a great add for my collection.
