  1. Thanks walksoftly, toolate2, inky and Aimathena!
  2. Thanks Aimathena!
  3. I use either Better Homes recipe-old old cookbook or a small cookbook titled Country Cookies. Use to collect old cookbooks but moving around they weigh a lot. lol
  4. The house we lived in in 1976 had a stove like that. Always thought it was the coolest thing. Then a house we looked at to buy in 2004 had one too. Didn't know that was the kind used on Bewitched! T...
  5. reading all this talk of cookies.....going to have to make some ginger crinkles now because the chewy chocolate chips I made just don't cut it. And with the holidays coming and all these great pictur...
  6. Thank you for sharing! I still have some of these same pieces that were mine as a child. I also have a small child's cookie press with one disk for it still. It was always so much fun to join my moth...
  7. Three cheers for walksoftly! :-)
  8. We have them too! When we first got married I was afraid to use the electric drills so I found that in my husbands things and had at it! He was impressed I got the job done with the hand drill.
  9. TubeAmp thank you for sharing the link! I have two of these sets and didn't know how to use them. Thought my son and his friend would like them since they speak/write Japanese and Chinese. Can't seem...
  10. Could it be a wheat grinder? Found a 'modern' site with wooden ones-seemed kinda of similar in it's own way. http://www.pleasanthillgrain.com/KoMo_grain_mill_wolfgang_flour_mill_grinder_mills.aspx ...
  11. It reminds me of a laundry basket my mom had when we were kids, it sat inside a cart on wheels, so mom could push laundry over to machine and not have to bend over. Maybe? If so, missing cart part......
  12. Looks to be a bento box, a lunchbox.
  13. Hunter-I thought the same thing but for a small fire, lol. Could it possibly be a lid lifter for like a dutch oven over an open fire?
  14. Thanks, walksoftly and toolate2
  15. Thanks, Manikin and mustangtony!
  16. Thanks, Manikin, blunderbuss2 and mustangtony!
  17. Hasn't solidified yet, can still hear it sloshing! lol
  18. Absolutely beautiful!
  19. When I saw the picture, I recognized seeing something before....It was one of those things I couldn't let go until I knew what it was. Love this site....learn so much from here. Makes me not want to...
  20. An item like this has been posted before almost a year ago I believe. Check out this website: http://www.nia.org/notins/nons2.htm It's a ceramic coffee filter. Now you can hunt for the rest of it!...
  21. Thank you for sharing! I absolutely love pearls! My husband bought me my first set of pearls over 20 years ago. I wear pearls everyday, it has become my signature mark. While my husband was in Tha...
  22. Upon looking at the bells....are they marked inside with Bells of Sarna? I have my grandfather's Christmas Bells of Sarna. They look very much like yours. Hopefully this site will come through and ma...
  23. I like the idea of a dinner bell or how about a fancy one of a kind door bell?
  24. Are the ends sharp? Thinking along the lines of some kind of leather working set. Found leather punch sets (circular and rectangular shape) but handle was part of punch end. Hopefully someone out t...
  25. I have some of these that I purchased while living in Okinawa. Mine are Christmas ornaments and their tails wiggle. The process of how they are made is interesting and unique. Thanks for sharing.
  26. I have tons and tons of stuff to post. Too lazy I guess to take time to get them on here or taking the pictures, downloading then uploading. You get the idea. So feel free to come on over here and so...
  27. I too remember these. Grandma use to make them and she would put pictures of us inside. Of course I always had a pink one so beautifully decorated. Thanks for sharing....I had forgotten that part o...
  28. tlmbaran-he arrived at bootcamp on his 26 birthday! We were already married for sometime and he told the recruiter that bootcamp would be easy because he was married to me. Well on family day he sa...
  29. Thanks everyone for the loves. I feel all warm and fuzzy now....
  30. Thanks for the love toracat and officialfuel. The chair is very special to me. Will need to research black bamboo now.
  31. It could possibly be wire crimping pliers. Would need a picture of just the head closed or almost closed to see it better.
  32. Might want to frame them and be sure to use glass that is uv protected. I have some 1920's Campbell Soup advertisements in frames but failed to have protected glass.... the pictures have faded even b...
  33. My first thought was to display military coins or possibly some kind of military medal. How a bout a silver dollar? What are the glass dimensions?
  34. What a unique looking watch. Matches my bracelet I just had repaired at the jewelers. I did some searching too under Rowe and came up empty, however I changed it to Rone and found that Rone watches ...
  35. Don't know anything but that it's a beer served in Western New York. Knew someone who collected those signs due to last name being Pabst. I like the snap-on stool....lol
  36. I agree with TallCakes. Using a ribbed cloth cover has the same effect and is easier to clean.
  37. I would say it is not a hat pin holder, but a hair receiver and matching powder jar.
  38. Thanks for the update....if you learn anything else keep us posted.
  39. These are really neat looking. While looking around the internet I found a site that sells reproductions especially for re-enactors this is what it said: "To insure they are useable by a wide rang...
  40. It won't let me post the website. Email me so I can send the site to you. bonniestoll at hotmail.com
  41. Well let’s see if this post will work. I came across this site while searching for something else. To find the coffee urn similar to yours scroll down the page some. There are some nice p...
  42. What a great memory. Thanks for sharing.
  43. Check out ebay. According to the pair like yours, (there are two pairs I saw on ebay) yours is from a later date. The seller stated that the originals were signed. The other pair I noticed had two...
  44. Well, I was stumped, thinking some kind of insulator but knew that couldn't be right. Just had to google till I found something. Found this site: http://www.nia.org/notins/nons2.htm The things we ...
  45. I don't know anything about glass but recognized the amber colored glasses as ones my friend had when we were kids. I found it listed as Libby Amber Country Garden Drinking Glasses at this site: htt...
  46. Well before I even clicked on the picture I knew it was from Niagara Falls. I don't know anything about the bridge. Just always enjoyed going to the Falls on the Canadian side. I did find this site...
  47. I was pretty sure I had the correct jeweler. It's just that I can't find another necklace like mine. I believe my necklace is pewter. I have one of their pins but it's from their 2002 line. I have...
  48. My husband says that this is a greaser. The funnel looking piece is screwed into equipment and then packed with grease. The top (larger piece with steel point) is packed with grease as well and scre...
  49. Thanks for all the likes/loves of the pictures!
  50. We had those too in the 70's. I loved them. My mom still displays the Santa and Rudolph. They are so durable and can handle the weather being displayed outside! Great find!
