Vintage Green Lamp Shade

My Mom has an endless amount of stuff. I am not kidding when I say I go shopping in her room, she has an office for her craft and office supplies, and she has a room where she keeps all of her mosaic matieral, supplies and where she works on mosaics.

What I'm trying to say is, it is great! I love to shop at my Mother's! I always find great craft supplies and vintage things! She has been collecting this stuff for years, my whole life, and now I love it all! She is going to get all of her pottery, china etc together this spring and do a big tag sale. I'm helping but first I am going to pick what I want.



I found this vintage frosted green lamp shade in one of her many piles. It has a few tiny chips but other than that it is in great condition! These are worth a lot these days and I though I would try selling it!

I think it would be great as a bird feeder/bath for the spring/summer. It is such a refreshing color. Doesn't it look so delicate and bright in front of the window? It really pops.
Also, the top of it has a nice simple yet intricate floral design that I really like. As usual, you can go to my etsy shop if you're interested, just click here

Have a great day everyone!

Vintage Zombie/Tumbler Glasses

I found these glasses a couple of days ago and fell in love with them immediately. The colors are creamy, soft, and frosted.



I did my best to research these tumblers, but couldn't come up with much. They are probably hand painted, from the 1950s, when this style was recognized. The image depicts a girl in a crinoline skit with an arch, bird bath and birds flying. These glasses are in great condition too, good to use for parties, and also perfect for display. I love how they would go well with all sorts of themes, Easter, spring, pale colors, girly rooms etc.

I put these up on etsy a few moments ago, if you're interested click here.
