Like Auntie Mame Said…

What tickles me on E-bay this week:

Old Christmas Tat

Sputnik Era Ornaments for your Aluminum Tree

Scrap Paper Ornaments

I love the gold foil Krampus. The steering bar on the sled moves.

Blown Glass Beads from Czechoslovakia ca. 1923. Celluloid from Italy ca. 1937.

And this tiny 2″x2-1/2″ reverse painted glass icon from Czechoslovakia.

The mark on the back dates it between 1918 and 1922.

My shabby finds may not be chic, but they do bring me joy even in hundred degree August heat.

The Holy Family one is gorgeous. My mother would kill for it.
