Tour of Collections ~"What I Collect"~ Trinkets & Tresures by: "The Charm House"

So, "The Charm House" wanted to know "What I collect" on March 16...

I'm delighted to show all of you. So, here goes...

"Trinkets & Treasures" at the home of the "mr & mrs. ~one vintage hag"

Vintage Pottery ~ vintage matte finish & some gloss finish ~ White/Off White Pottery...

Pottery... Pottery & more Pottery ~ all "vintage"

Not, a great shot... but there's another at the bottom of the post that's better...

I have shelves all the way around our "family room" ~ David did for me.

They are packed ~ loaded ~ weighed down by vintage white pottery &

vintage alarm clocks...

Tougher but my lovely collection ~ "piano liars" ~ now, three total.

All different & unique up placed up high with Vintage Ironstone Lids.
Another, favorite collection...

There are 12 vintage ironstone lids so far... with three vintage piano liars.

I adore "signs" - you might say... oh, so you collect ~motivational ones ~ not really,

I'm full of motivation already ~ just some "life reminders" as I like to call them...

This one in the kitchen. Another, in the hall "Its a Wonderful Life...." ~truly, it is.

Vintage Bristol Crown Ducal ~ Red Transfer Ware China

Started this collection when I got my "Nana's" ~ these were her

"everyday dishes...." So, far 138 pieces. Adore this pattern.

Use it everywhere and to "eat on" for special occasions.

Vintage Red Transfer Ware Sugar Bowls ~ without their lids....

These adorn my guest bath downstairs ~ love the ones I have

in the little metal cupboard. This one "my newest"... big one, thanks "My Vintage Heart" ~

she finds the "coolest old stuff" to help me add to many "collections".

See, I'm filling this cool vintage metal cabinet in the bathroom ~

with vintage red transfer ware sugar bowls w/out the lids...

more there than you can see,

its a tight place to photograph ~ so this picture shows you the "most".

David ~ "mr. one vintage hag" has collections in our home too,

this one Lady Lladro Figurines.. some interesting ones...

a few other lady figurines live in our home too ~ some Older Goebel Ones ~

and some Lenox Ladies.

letter "d's" ~ an obvious collection ~ "david & debbie"

for the "seasons" ~ little "mica & putz houses" ~have more of those with Vintage Seasonal

Annalee's & a great vintage bottle brush tree collections at Christmas time... All packed up now ~ but have a few for each season ~ trees, houses a few new, but mostly older ones.

here you go ~ a better picture of my little old alarm clocks with more vintage pottery~

this on the opposite side of the room... (see, "mvh" when you came by at Christmas) ~
it was all of mr. hag's Christmas In The City Villages....

I've promised you could see... and you can, come by anytime but for today a glimpse.

Rainy in Georgia today... so, no luck with pictures of my new "cloche" collection outside on the patio. And, a couple new "collection idea's" for our "little home" ~ the obvious

that many like Time Worn Interiors collects "Butter Pats" & I think that I may begin a

collection of "soaps" ~ from the places we visit... for the Master Bath in a "big fat glass jar".

I have several cool clear glass jars another collection as well... forgot to picture those. When we downsized a couple years ago, I had to pick my favorites... sold, the rest to "good homes" because there used to be many many more.

I've been delighted to participate with The Charm House in "What I collect".

So, on a final note ~ You know "Webster" would define a "collection" as ~

col·lec·tion (kə lek′s̸hən)
noun
the act or process of collecting
things collected, specif., as in a hobby a collection of stamps
a mass or pile; accumulation
money collected, as during a church service

I on the other hand define a "Collection" in a different way...

A "house" is a "house" or in our case a "condo" ~ once you add the occupants

character ~ in the things you "love" ~ you add the collections of the occupants, us ~
its becomes "home" ~ without any particular defined style - just "home".

Don't have a "collection"? ~ Goodness Gracious ~ Start one... right away...

You'll be so happy you did~!

Thank you "Yvette" ~ I've loved this idea & participating.

Now, for the rest of my "day" ~ I have to leave our "home" ~ Its the "Evening Gold Buy Event" at the "village" ~ my list is a long one for that. Exciting~!

And, today is "Wren's" Birthday... A dealer in our shop ~I've mentioned her before...

I'll take her a "cup cake"....

"Today ~ Wren you are the star of the show... hope you birthday is packed with surprises"

Tomorrow & Saturday.... a "fun day trips" junk-in with some "buds" ~

wait til you see our vehicles...

have enjoyed sharing a "part" of what makes me... ~one vintage hag
