Vintage Declutting

I think it needs to be vintage thingies decluttering Thursday....

And by the way, when did I accumulate things I never used? Can you tell me that? And how unfair is it that I have to sell things I adore because I have no room?

I really, really hate that.

I went to an estate sale a while back at an incredible house. Like some sort of kitchy time capsule. And I would have bought the kitchen table if I could have. All gray Formica marblized on top and all burnt orange sparklish chairs and I know that sounds weird but it so worked. And it was cluttered the way those kinds of houses usually are. And some creepy guy beat me to a garbage can filled with buttons and looked smug about it, besides.

But I enjoyed just the experience of being there and found these...

I got three big ones and three small. I since found out they are by Federal Glass, the amoeba pattern. I'm keeping the big ones because I am using them


And these...



I guess these were standard issue souvenir Florida glasses from the 50's and I loved them instantly. I never used them. Not once. I have this weird thing about frosted glass. I hate the way it feels and don't ever use glasses that are frosted. I thought I could get past it because I loved these glasses so much but I can't. I hung on to these for quite some time but than I got this last week....



and their big sisters...




And I need the space so I'm listing the Flamingo glasses today on eBay....


And it's kind of sad that I have to let stuff go....

But I guess maybe it's kind of not if
someone else gets stuff they want.

Sigh.

Hope I can get over the sad part though.
