Not that these little green depression glass cups have anything to do with QVC or shopping however they are the color of the year , green
At one time I had an entire old pie safe full of green depression glass dishes
I just found these in a drawer, yes I put dishes in drawers of old chest and my high boy has lots dishes in it's drawers
More little items for the next yard sale, my neighbor came over last night and we were discussing out next tentative date since I had to cancel because of my friend dying suddenly, hopefully in 2 weeks on a Tuesday , yes Tuesday we are both off Tuesday's , I had a sale once on a Tuesday and did good at distributing my treasures to others
Oh one more thing I have a friend Lorene in Port Charlotte Florida having her 100th birthday next month and I added some green glitter to her special birthday card I am mailing her .
She called me Saturday and said Janice don't forget my birthday and no way could I forget her birthday she is a active 100 year old still plays bridge xoxooxo Lorene
Linky parties I am joining
How lovely and reminiscent of parties of another time. I always love your beautiful collections of the "old colors" and patterns. They always give the comfort and welcome of a cozy time at Grandma's house, or perhaps an elegant country weekend at a friend's..
ReplyDeleteI'm not a wearing-of-the-green person, either, except for some of the pale grey-green sages, and just posted a silly thought on my blog about green yesterday.
I wonder why, if green is the color-to-wear this year, does the lady in the emerald-green satin dress always look as if she got the bad seat in the limo.

Boy, I LOVE the green of those cups...I have the old standard amber colored set from my Grandmother. Happy Birthday to your dear friend - 100 years!!!!! Happy Monday - hope your week leads to some fabulous finds! XOXO
ReplyDeleteI have a green cake plate to go with your cups. If my daughter cannot get a job this summer we may clean this house and have an enormous yard sale with her being in charge of it. Have a terrific week, olive
ReplyDeleteI'd never heard before about green being the color to wear, but I love green. I think it's because our winters up here are so long that when we finally get to see green again, it's such a joy. I'm not fond of pink Depression glass, but I love the green Depression glass. Such pretty cups!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I have some green dishes from my great aunt...very special to me :)
ReplyDeleteI love that shade of green in those dishes.
ReplyDeleteWell if green is the color of the year- then I am finally in VOGUE! Green is my favorite color- thought I don't have many green dishes, I do have some green vintage pottery marked USA on the bottom! Which I just love.
ReplyDeleteI like your green dishes are they what's called carnival glass?
Have a great weekend
Hi Patricia , they are called depression glass
Deletethanks for coming over I like new remarks from new bloggers
I have a small collection of green depression glass too, just pieces I've picked up at yard sales over the years. Green is one of my favorite colors, but I'd never dream of wearing it....just awful, lol.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty spring green!
ReplyDeleteI do the same as you when I store a lot of my dishes. Green is not my most favorite color but a bit of depression glass is OK in my book..Happy Thursday..Judy
ReplyDeleteLove your green depression glass, how wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHappy 100th birthday to your friend! (A relative on my mom's side lived to 103 and was still bright and active.)
Happy Vintage Thingie Thursday!
Glad to hear green is the color of the year. It is my favorite color. Happy 100th birthday to your friend. I wish someone here would have a Tuesday sale. Have a great day. Dianne
ReplyDeleteI missed green was the "in" color! My favorite with pink, and lucky me green is one of my best colors to wear. love the green depression, I have a entire collection of Cameo. Happy Birthday to your friend! Thanks for stopping by to visit me.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to be 100 and so active..Seems as if it is not as rare as it once was? Usually it is the people like your friend that stay active...She will love your card it is adorable!! I love green depression glass
