There is just something about feeling glass that makes something ordinary seem a little special. I have vintage glass water bottles for the fridge and love them!<br /><br />Big hug<br />elizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-76804821972592509442015-02-02T14:00:41.411-06:002015-02-02T14:00:41.411-06:00I'm beginning to think you're even more ri...I'm beginning to think you're even more right about us having so much in common! I'm getting rid of almost all the plastic in my house too. In fact, I've been collecting replacements for all that tupperware in the form of vintage pyrex. It looks so much nicer and I agree.... it's much better for us.<br /><br />Those jars and that string were great finds :)<br /><br />xoRuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110133467260748245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-80910885716809928312014-10-20T16:04:45.016-05:002014-10-20T16:04:45.016-05:00I to have been on a mission to rid my house of pla...I to have been on a mission to rid my house of plastic. I've been at it for a few years because I'm fussy. I like to look for old jars. Great photos. I like to play as well. Today I put a black candle in a stone cherub for Halloween.<br />I also found a skull glass jar so I filled it with black beans.<br />susan hemannhttp://susanhemann.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-19534210472142322202014-10-07T13:20:43.835-05:002014-10-07T13:20:43.835-05:00Hi Tina

Amish snacks...cheese curds, Amish bread, some cold cuts, and Birch Beer soda (like a very strong root beer). Nothing exciting, but not expensive at all - that is the fun part!<br /><br />Thanks for visiting<br />Big hugs<br />ElizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-50455854593896382452014-10-07T13:19:16.734-05:002014-10-07T13:19:16.734-05:00Hi Primjillie (love that name)

I carry a bottle of water to the car every day - need to figure that one out too.<br /><br />Don't you love the feel of glass and how the food tastes so MUCH better when in glass vs plastic? <br /><br />Thanks for visiting<br />Big hugs<br />ElizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-45890289881654610642014-10-07T13:17:38.110-05:002014-10-07T13:17:38.110-05:00Hi Lin

I try to transfer as much as I can to glass when I buy something in plastic. I love seeing how much I have (left) and the texture adds so much to the kitchen (and elsewhere). Now I have to focus on my addiction to plastic water bottles. I did buy a vintage thermos after seeing yours and plan to use it to carry my drink of choice to the beach.primjilliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08090635741087191038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-60750321454044231032014-10-05T08:59:25.931-05:002014-10-05T08:59:25.931-05:00Lovely post ~ your vacation sounds like it was a w...Lovely post ~ your vacation sounds like it was a wonderful time away together.<br /><br />I prefer glass to plastic and have been slowly changing things over as well.
