Here are some pictures of:
1. My kitchen "junk drawer", where I stash small toys. (People are always pulling it open, looking for spoons or such like, and they find this instead.) Some old things, some new, some childhood treasures I've saved since I was little...have fun rooting around!
2. An antique printer's tray that rests on my coffee table, filled with tiny toys and treasures. It started out as a sorting and display area for my vintage Cracker Jack and gumball machine prizes, but it's expanded beyond those categories. Click, zoom, and see what you can find!
I love these, especially the Oscar Mayer whistles.
ReplyDeletefun! I have shoe boxes and hat boxes filled with stuff like this.
ReplyDeleteoh goodness, what treasures! reminds me of the toy shop Uncle Fun here in Chi-town.
ReplyDeleteYou're just like us Tracy! My husband and I are both collectors of every thing including little treasures like these!
