Tickled pink to be CROWNED

Thank goodness the storms are past and the power

is back on . We are very thankful to God that we didn't

get anything worse. One tree limb down is hardly worth

even talking about compared to what others have

gone through.

This is my latest exciting find that I just had to share

with you. After fluffing my booth last week I decided

to stop at another antique mall...almost didn't because

it seems that they have the same old stuff.

I was thrilled to find not only one , but FOUR of these

old crown canning jars! I had never even heard of them

until I read a post from Janis at Rust and Ruffles.

I thought never in a million years that I would

find any...I guess I was wrong!

There are at least two or three different designs and the

glass inserts in the lids even have crowns on them.

How cool is that?

{We do love our crowns here in blogland!}

They are made in Canada and I don't know a thing about them except that I love them. I tried and tried to get better pictures, to no avail. I am thinking they may show up the crown design better filled with water so I will have to try that soon.

What do you think of my latest find?? I handed over $2.50 each for these beauties

and almost ran out the door.lol.

At the same antique mall I purchased this wine holder

for $4.00. I don't drink wine, but I just had to get it...

I love the wire design

and it made a great carrier for the jars!

happy day~
