Milk Glass and a new project

I have been collecting milk glass for a while now. I love the crispnees of the white and the versatility of many of the pieces. Plus, it's still cheap. I spent between .50 cents to 3.00 for almost all of my pieces. It also reminds me of my Grandmother. I don't remember exactly what pieces she had but I know there were some on her shelves when I would visit. I love collecting things that remind me of something or someone special.  These are some of my favorite pieces.

This is the centerpiece on the breakfast table.
On top of my pantry cabinet. Which is one of my paint projects this summer. Goodby pine~
Many of my pieces are waiting for their new home. I found this china hutch at a local thrift store for 50.00. I can't wait to paint it and put it in the dining room! Currently it is taking up the children's play space in the basement. Don't worry I have the drawer's they are  in the corner. The hutch is sitting behind the base
in this photo making it look so short.It has such beautiful detail!
Won't it look pretty painted black and full of milk glass? I can't wait!
Do any of you have collections of things you love?

  2. Bekki, What a beautiful hutch. I can't believe you got it so cheap. It is going to look soooo nice. Good to have more storage. (It would go well in my house too.)

  3. Looks awesome, Bekki. I really need to start going to thrift stores. You find the best deals on nice pieces...love the hutch. I need shelves for Zach's room. Btw, I ordered Zach's star bedding online at PB's store...saved $40.00 on shipping charges. They normally don't do this, but they have been telling me for 4 months now that they are getting the bedding in the store and no sign of it yet. Yay! I should be receiving it in 5 -7 days.

  5. That is beautiful. I love milk glass, though I don't have much. I do have several pieces of Depression glass. I wish I could find some of the bargains you find!
