Recent Acquisitions

 Here are a few of my recent acquisitions.  I have not really had time to work on projects, but I have taken time during my lunch hours to find a few pieces here and there.  The small painting was at a garage sale.  The small glass vase and yellow glass picture were at an estate sale.  The yellow glass pitcher has flowers painted on it.  I picked up the stove on eBay via Canada. It was made in Germany.
 
 I came across these small resin buildings at another estate sale.  They are actually thimbles!  I figured they might be good accessories in one of my houses.  They are less than one inch tall and very detailed.


 I found this old Tupperware container at an estate sale this week.  It was one price for the whole lot.  There were a few treasures in there. Also a bag full of small lead pieces and accessories.

 The piece I like most is the metal wringer - other pieces were a working Tiffany style lamp, some clay pots and some metal pieces.
