    Love the linens KOT.

    Like Cheryl, I have accumulated many hankies over the years. I stop myself now unless they are designer hankies or are not the usual. If I find odd ones or HTF ones, I sell each on their own for collectors.

    One day I will make a big lot and sell the rest for the crafters to buy (I hope) as some are not perfect and I would like to make room here and some dough. But I hate taking pics of hankies.

    Well worth doing the rounds the last week or so. Some i have posted on other threads alreadyIn nor particular order: algha vintage reading glasses with case, 18th meissen dish, 800 silver set of spoons, 5 sterling spoons, burtles and tate glass swan, brass pestle and mortar, red gum australian bowl, bone poker dice, mexico sterling bowl (take a breath) norway enamel silver brooch, sterling bangle, 3 9ct chains, 9ct locket & chain, french pendant/brooch, italian bangle with cameos and an adorable thimbke in a red velvet box.

    Now that's what I'd call a haul. I went out hunting at a church sale this morning, but didn't find anything worth the battery life to photograph it for you.

    Hard to believe, Anund, that someone would just send something like that to Savers!!!!!

    Everything I liked at the auction house last night went double my limit so I struck out there. However I got these Kentucky Derby glasses at the thrift store for $1.25 each. They must have a stash of them since I purchased one a few weeks ago. 1984 Kentucky Derby Glasses.jpg
