Colored Glass

This is my "green collection" and I love colored glass. The dish on the left is from Habitat For Humanity thrift shop, and the vase and statue from Goodwill, and the two ceramic vases are from a church thrift shop called Maranantha. I know the vases are ceramic, and belong on the ceramics page, but sometimes they are photographed all together, and someday (perhaps) will be sorted out.

Glass cat, and now I have three of varying shades, blue, yellow, and this one is almost perfectly clear. The vase in the background is Illinois Glass Company in an Art Deco style. I don't know if it is vintage, but my weakness for glass objects means it doesn't matter! The cat is a candle holder.

The pumpkin glass candy dish was quite a find at Goodwill, and the little birds were a gift from my son. The candle lamp in the background is actually for Christmas, but it's so pretty sometimes I set it out throughout the year.

I was at the thrift shop in Santa Rosa buying out the place (lol) and when at the check-out glanced over to the window area, and found this covered candy dish. I couldn't resist taking a couple of steps over and placing it with the rest of my purchases.  I probably paid too much, as it was set aside with other "special things" and was about $8.00.  It isn't worth anything, not vintage, not antique, but it is gorgeous to me.
