They were passed down to me from someone to use in college and I thought they were cool so I have always had them. I saw them at an antique shop a few weekends ago - and was shocked to see the entire set sold fro $68! I had a score and I didn't even know it! I also realized that my parents house is stock full of good finds! {their basement!} I just don't always know what to do with the stuff or how to display it. I would love to see more pictures of your house as it comes together for some ideas!

They are usually tarnished beyond belief, but I now have a cool silver tray for all my perfumes, a silver dish for my "nighttime removal" (of my clips, watch, rings etc) and I also have a silver "cordial Server" (from like the 40's) (it has 6 little silver cups hanging in a little tray) that I use to keep rosebuds in :)Lauren Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14493533146374757350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4351644930286151865.post-22125107126399529462008-07-25T16:17:00.000-05:002008-07-25T16:17:00.000-05:00My favorite finds are a yellow striped glass caraf...My favorite finds are a yellow striped glass carafe...I'm going to use it for lemonade!
