Memories

When my DH and I were first married, 28 years ago, we didn't have much.  But we enjoyed what we had and one of those things was this old radio.  

 This was in the early 80's and everyone of our friends had the latest electronics and the music to go with it.   We had this vintage radio that we listened to Saturday Night Oldies on, every Saturday night.  We loved it.


Yes it still works.  It takes a couple of minutes to warm up, but it works.   It gets most of its use now during the Christmas season as I sit at the dining room table doing crafts, this old thing blares out the songs of the season.   I am constantly telling the grands "don't touch" as they love turning these old knobs, see the fingerprints!    

Ahhh, memories.   

And look at this beautiful black and white transferware teacup!  Man I fell in love with it right away.   I found this for .50 at a garage sale!  The brass stand was free at another garage sale and the silver folding tray was yet another garage sale find for a couple of bucks! - score!  

 I hope you enjoyed this and the other vintage thingies that are on display at http://coloradolady.blogspot.com/

I am also joining http://debbie-debbiedoos.blogspot.com/ for her Garage Sale'n Party on Friday!

I'm doing it!

I've rented space at American Classics ~ the largest antique mall in Colorado.  I am so excited!  The first week I sold a couple of things and already have a check.  It's a small space but I took what I could get.  I'll see how things go for the next few months and if need be I will get on the waiting list for a bigger space.  Come visit me, vendor C21, at American Classics in Colorado Springs.
