I have added a few of my vintage plates to my etsy shop. They hung on my walls until I had to paint some rooms. Just could not put all those holes back in my walls. I will be adding more over next few weeks. Used to be I would buy a pretty plate every time I went to an antique shop!

I am helping one of my Local neighbors by selling her cookie jar collection. She is an elderly disabled woman living with her daughter. She has been collecting cookie jars for almost 40 years.
Her collection is large and reaches over 600 jars!
Due to the size of her daughters home she must let part of her collection go. The money these jars bring will be used twards their medical bills, and cost of living. Help a Person out today. Buy a cookie jar, and display a wonderful jar in your home to be reminded of your good deed to help someone out in need.

You can find these jars in my shop at http://www.etsy.com/shop/mandileighs

Here is some of the cookie jars that I have listed so far.

I actually found it when I was going thru some of my stuff that has been packed away due to lack of space. I didnt know I had it and at first thought it was fenton. Then realized it wasnt because Fenton bout the mold and released it in 1980 as the Eye and Scroll compote. So I decided to do some digging to find out what exactly I had. I searched for like a week just trying to find it.

Hi everyone New to this group wanted to say hi (waves) I just love vintage its all over my house. I have a ton of it. Everything I have came from my grandmother when she decided to thin out her own personal collection. I kept what I could but the rest is on my site if you would like to check it out. Got stuff from 1908-1970s
Listed under antiques and vintage, Fenton, and I think Hull? Not sure If i moved that to the other section or not. http://www.mandileighs.etsy.com

@Serendipity Vintage: Yes, Marnie is my favorite film of hers! I told her that and was able to talk to her in a Q&A session as well. It was awesome.

I look at both of them every day - I'm extremely lucky for both of them.

I love Tippi Hedren, especially in Marnie!

The perfume bottle is so, so pretty. You are very lucky to have it!

I love retro things! Mostly coffee books about classic Hollywood and pin-ups. My favorite things that I would consider retro/vintage that I own would be a personalized autograph from Tippi Hedren whom I met last October and an authentic perfume bottle that once belong to Mary Pickford last year for my twenty-first birthday.

I also sell buttons, magnets, keychains, compact mirrors and pyrography inspired by vintage/retro iconography on Etsy.
