    Vintage tableware

    Forgot one more thing... Pottery Barn has silver-plated bowls similar to the ones from Martha Stewart, too! http://www.potterybarn.com/products/silver-plated-small-bowl/?pkey=x%7C4%7C1%7C%7C10%7Csilver%20bowl%7C%7C0&cm_src=SCH They're $19, and for now, I can't bring myself to pay that...

    Vintage tableware

    New Additions I've been searching for YEARS to figure out where I could get this creamy Wedgwood pattern. The Martha Stewart Catalog just called it "Queen's Ware." I even went as far as emailing Wedgwood, and that got me NO WHERE! The pattern is in the same shape as Drabware, but...

    Seeking the Perfect Leather Book Cover

    I'm finally getting moving... I didn't even check WHEN I started this thread, but I'm finally acting on your suggestions. I ordered a bible cover from the http://www.renaissance-art.com/ in black. It's something I needed/wanted, but I'm not too particular about it. If I like it, I may end...

    "Vintage Style Toaster"

    I agree that the Ascot fits in well with your other stuff, but I love the clean, modern lines of the Manhattan. With that said, I'm going to have to get one of those Sunbeams. It looks just like the one my grandma had, and you can't be the price! (Plus, the Morphy Richards brand doesn't...

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    My tomatoes went in late and have yet to really take off. I'm solarizing the area on the left to kill weeds, and the rhubarb on the right has had a good year. This was also the first year I've used straw for mulch, and I've very happy with the result. [/IMG] My zucchini, on the other...

    What is your eye color?

    I had blonde curly hair when I was a kid, which is what my dad had when he was a kid. Now that I'm older, it's dark brown, but a good portion of it has fallen out. lol

    Shave of the Day

    I'm all about efficiency... I scrub my face in the shower with St. Ives Apricot scrub followed by Biore foaming cleanser. That gets me ready for my shave with: Gillette Mach 3 Clinique Cream Shave (with the remainder wiped off with a hot, wet towel) Clinique Post-Shave Healer Despite...

    The Vintage Fur Thread

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you wearing a shearling coat in your profile picture? Isn't that lamb fur? As far as the vegetarian bit, I can see how non-veggies think there's a contradiction. But there are many reasons someone might choose to be a vegetarian, and there's a spectrum of...

    The Vintage Fur Thread

    Actually, just donating the money wouldn't get the desired effect. By showing the "locals" that they can make a living off the land, you encourrage conservation. Throwing money at a problem never solves anything, but by allowing people to make a living (and showing them that conservation can...

    And the winner is...

    Well, I guess I'm glad you didn't bid against me! According to the posted measurements, this jacket should fit perfectly. I compared them to measurements of a jacket I already have, and, in fact, the new jacket should fit even better (when I measured the sleeves of my current jacket, I...

    Seeking the Perfect Leather Book Cover

    Thanks for the great links! Contrarytwo, what great prices! texasgirl, this is exactly the type of leather I'm looking for, but I think I need it to be custom. Plus, as I was browsing your suggestions, I remembered I need a new bible cover as well!

    And the winner is...

    I just won this on eBay. It's no Aero, but I'm excited nonetheless. Here are pictures from the seller: Any info on the jacket would be helpful (I'm no expert, that's for sure). I'll be certain to post pictures of the jacket being worn as soon as it arrives! :p

    Does anyone use a name that's not their own?

    Nicknames On here (and in a lot of online places), I go by my grandfather's nickname "Joe Niblick." In the 50's and 60's he owned a bump shop named Niblick's, and people ended up using that as his last name. Most of my nicknames have been given to me (and pretty much only used by) my older...

    Who Did You Just See Live?

    Not too long ago, I saw Etta James in Detroit. I was actually a bit disappointed. I think she was trying too hard to be a sexy young woman instead of a dignified older lady with a great history. Even still, I suppose it was worth to say that I saw her perform live.

    Seeking the Perfect Leather Book Cover

    Does anyone have a good source for custom leather accessories? Actually, it doesn't even have to be custom, but here's what I'm looking for: A heavy-weight cowhide (bridle leather?) slip cover for a month-by-month calendar. It wouldn't be complicated to make... But a single piece of leather...
