I'm still kicking myself that I didn't succumb to some funky cup & saucers (they were ladies heads, sort of) when I was in an antique shop awhile ago. I loved them but didn't want to pay the price (think they were something like $7 each). I know how you would have felt if you didn't buy the jars, so good for you!!Magpie's Mumblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852241848575954128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8065239037640529021.post-28689108132238185632010-01-09T03:35:14.829+11:002010-01-09T03:35:14.829+11:00Oh - what a shame if you really liked them Doreen....Oh - what a shame if you really liked them Doreen.
