Free, free, free! Everything should be free. Donchathink? LOL!
Beautiful sheer pink fabric. This lovely thing had a small hole near one of the edges so I neatly cut off a couple of inches on that end and hey presto - as good as new.
My niece and I ended finding two of these tea light holder lanterns in so-so condition... so thankfully we didn't fighter over just one. I ended up spray painting mine with chrome paint. ;)
I saw them a few months later at Ikea for $5.
Have a Christmas drink in one of these! Not a chip or crack found on this glass.
Lastly, about those egg cups I was talking about yesterday...
I remember my dear mother would on occasions serve me a soft boiled eggs in egg cups - I 'vaguely' remember the ones below in the photo specifically. As I grew older, the egg cups came out less and less until I saw them no more, then one day earlier this year my mother gave them to me (or rather, I found them hiding in a cupboard she had asked me to clean out a little and I SQUEEED and mentioned that I collect egg cups now!).
You may see a set of 6, but that's not how it was when she passed them on to me. A few months before they were given to me, my niece and I were browsing in an op shop. She found one egg cup just like those! BUT, when she found it my eyes glazed over a tad and I was trying to think where I'd seen that design before. Oh dear! How on earth could I forget that lovely little design? So when mine were passed onto me, I finally remembered THAT design.
I then nearly begged my niece to pass the one she had found onto me to complete my set - and she graciously did and I'll be forever grateful for that. I promised her that if I ever find another, she'll get hers back. :) Now if you look very carefully -clicky-clicky on the photo-, I bet you can figure out which one it is. Simply because (sometimes) details from one particular set will not always be the same as another.
