I am obsessed with vintage cups. I am especially obsessed with miniature glasses. I first became obsessed when I visited Germany and had a personal encounter with an older German woman's vintage glasses and hand-painted ceramic coasters. I could not get over the perfection of these tiny sets, so much so, that the BF finagled these sets from the woman and shipped them back for me. Yeah, I know, he's a keeper! Unfortunately, in a heartbreaking shipping malfunction (never use DHL), every glass and coaster in the set was shattered except for one glass and one coaster. Finally, a few months ago, the remaining glass was knocked off my shelf. It was just not meant to be.
Anytime I see vintage glasses, I am stopped in my tracks and barely fight off the urge to purchase. However, two weeks ago, I came across a deal I couldn't pass up. 7 kelly green vintage glasses with white polka dots and a vintage glass holder for only $17! The glass holder was an unappetizing pea green but after a few coats of white lacquer spray paint, I could not be happier. Anyone want to come over for some ice tea?!
