ANTIQUE VINTAGE CRYSTALS

CRYSTALS
CRYSTAL DRAWER PULLS

VINTAGE DOILY Here are a few antique crystals I have collected over the years, some from a crystal table lamp and some from a very old antique crystal chandelier. I think there are about 100 of them, I guess I will be selling those too. At the local flea markets they get about $1.00 each. I might be able to get more on the internet. The crystal drawer pulls sitting beside them I found on an old antique wash stand along side the road. It was way beyond repair, but the pulls were a great find. I have everything sitting in a red vintage bowl. Underneath is a vintage hand crochet doily from the 50's. Everything is sitting on a vintage wicker coffee table, at least that is what I am using it for. I am down here in sunny Florida helping my dad out, I will be here till the end of March. These are some pic's I took before I left, so I would have a few things to put on VTT.
Me & Maggie are haveing a great time its soooo warm and sunny! Check out my other blog to keep up with us. On there you will see some pic's of why I wanted to get out of PA.
Blessings to all
Donna

  1. Those crystals look lovely sitting in that red bowl! I once got a whole shoebox full of chandelier crystals for $1 at an estate sale! Have fun in Florida. We're got freezing rain here!
    Happy VTT!

  8. What a lovely display. What a cool way to "keep" those crystals that would otherwise end up in the trash.

  11. I love those drawer pulls! Whenever I see crystals for light fixtures, it reminds me of my husband and his siblings complaining about having to help clean the 4 large chandeliers his parents had. They used to clean them in the bathtub, and then have to put all the crystals that came off back on. Thanks for sharing, and enjoy the warmth!

  15. These are lovely! We once bought some old doors at a demolition yard which had crystal doorknobs,but we replaced the knobs. We temporarily used one of the crystal knobs on our bathroom vanity, and lo and behold a few years later crystal came right back into fashion! You have a great collection!,

  18. Very nice! I've been wanting to update the hardware on our doors and this could be a way to do it, thanks for the inspiration.
