It’s been a while since I have shared any found treasures, but I do have a few recent finds to share.
Yesterday Keith and I were out hitting a few shops in Salem and came across these two cute little flower frogs. I have many collections of things, one of which is flower frogs. I love the heavy little metal ones as well as the round glass types in different colors. I have round and oval metal ones, but none with the outside cup that goes with them.
Over Memorial Day weekend our neighbors had a yard sale and cleaned out a bunch of old things that had belonged to our former neighbor, Alice. Alice had a HUGE cookie cutter collection and they were selling the cookie cutters that they were not planning on keeping.
Needless to say, I was tickled to pick up some of her collection like this vintage 8 inch Santa cookie cutter in its original box. And these Halloween cookie cutters, with the original box and insert.
I love the graphics on both boxes and the insert graphics on the Halloween set. Hard to find things like this anymore, but with knowing Alice, I wouldn’t expect anything less. She had probably a dozen large Rubbermaid tubs full of her collection. And she kept books with their outlines traced on colored paper that corresponded to the tub they were kept in so she knew exactly where everything was. She was an original organizer. I am thrilled to have part of her collection.
