Hey, have you noticed the list of links to the left? Where it says visit these blogs and web pages.  Did you know that you can click on one and it will take you to their blog?  Take for instance Corrie Glass They have just started posting on their blog again, (with a little poking from me) and the owner Wayne seems to.think that I'm the only one looking at it.  Let's show our support for him and his blogging by clicking on the link and checking it out.  If you have never been to their store you should stop by and say hello to Wayne and Judy and see the beautiful things that Wayne creates.
 We have lots of pretty green glass in the shop right now.  Some depression and some from the 50's.  If you buy it for collecting sake or want some pretty new pieces for Christmas entertaining, we probably have a piece or two for you. 

 This is a cabinet across from the office.  Green's one of my favorite colors, what about you?


This dark green glass below is from the Anchor Hocking Glass Company, 1950 - 1957
The company named the color "Forest Green"  The pattern name is "Charm" (and it is!)


The Collection here is in Space #85, last space back of store on the right.

Believe it or not this is Jessica from Tyme For Tea.  Spooky!

What a fun day it was in Niles!  The kids were so cute and so well behaved.  So glad Niles School still does this.  We enjoy it as much as the kids!
