The Past Introduced to the Present in Green
I did it! I created my 1st Artfire Collection! So much fun doing it, easier than I thought, and it was so fun looking at things that others had to offer with their treasures at Artfire. Click the link above this to see the collection I have done. I would appreciate the visit, and any comments are always welcome too!:)
Thanks for visiting with LilacsNDreams today everyone! Make sure you visit my stores I have noted to the right in the side bar. Just click the links, and they will take you to them. Enjoy your browsing, and have a great evening everyone!:)
After spending most of the week researching this Fenton Blue Opalescent Grape and Cable Bowl, and there were many others who also assisted with the research of this unique piece, I have finally listed this bowl for sale with my shop at Artfire. Most pieces of the Fenton Grape and Cable pattern are seen in the carnival glass. This is one piece that is not carnival glass, is not iridized for the carnival glass, and thought maybe to have gotten out the door of production before the marigold spray had been added to this for the carnival look. Or, could it have been a small experimental run with Fenton on this piece, and color? No one knows for sure, at least that has been found this far.
Many books, many authors, many researchers interpretations adds to the charm of this beautiful piece that words, and pictures cannot do justice to. When you get a chance, visit my shop at Artfire to view this beautiful piece. Great for the collector of Fenton, the Glass collector, and would make a great gift for someone very special too.
I am so thrilled with this piece, and had to come by to show everyone here. Enjoy!:) Have a super week everyone!:)
Hello to all who visit me today, and Welcome to LilacsNDreams! Glad to have you stop by, pass through, and visit with me.
Monday, beginning of a new week, and of course things always look good, right? I have gotten a couple of things listed with my LilacsNDreams Artfire store, took a few more pictures, dug through some boxes, found some more glass pieces with some odds & ends to deal with, washed everything, dried, and now I have a mess with the dining room table, and kitchen counter. I have been trying a few pieces together. But, when not sure what I would like to upcycle, and how it looks, I generally will play a bit, and then walk away to see if I am settled on the idea I had.
I took time to research a few pieces today that will have to go to my LilacsNDreams Ecrater store. When it is not 20+ years old to be considered vintage, it goes to my Ecrater store for listings then. I find different pieces that are neat, cute, coloring, home decor, and still collectibles by many. Just not old enough to be considered vintage. So, when you can, visit that store as well, ok?
Well, wanted to stop by here quick, leave a few notes, and check in on things as always. Hope this finds all of you doing well. Wishing ya'll a super week! Take care, and stop again when you can.
