Hello!
First off if you haven't signed up for my giveaway go HERE and spread the words about it because if someone says you sent them my way it gives you extra entries!
On to the post!
Many people have asked me on this blog "What do you do with all of that green glass?"...mostly nothing :) That is why I need to stop buying it! A lot of it sits around and looks pretty, but lately I have been finding more and more uses for it, so I thought I would give a little post and let you know exactly what I do DO with my green glass!




This one holds my makeup!




The vase my mom gave me
the blue/green galss I just bought and posted about the other day for 1.50
The next one is soo little. I got it for .50 at goodwill a long time ago.
Then the little clear galss platter I showed you a while back, it holds the little bottles that my buttons are in!

Its a little green glass light bulb that is actually a jar.
The socket twists off. Its holding my craft marbles. My mom found it in my grandpas garage when he died and gave it to me. Im not sure how old it is.
Then a round vase. I got on sale 90% at the hallmark store years ago.
Lastly....the first peice of green glass, that started my craziness.
It looks like a genie bottle to me and it comes with a stopped that is not on it, Its in a drawer somewhere, I was afraid it would fall off and break because it is not a tight fit.
My grandma gave it to me.She had a blue one and now I wish I had asked for it too. But I just loved green and wanted the green one at the time.
I wonder what happened to the blue one?
She says its my great grandmas. I'm unsure of how old it is,
but it is a very nice peice.

That's it! That is what I do with all of my green glass. But I need to stop my addiction...for a little bit! I'm going to try really hard to cut back....unless I find that perfect must have piece of green glassware :)
Happy Shopping!
You got quite a collection, but you put it all to good use i think!

It all looks great! Thank you so much for sharing!
ReplyDeletenice! :) not only does the glass serve a purpose, its pretty too!
ReplyDeleteCute! I like them all, but I really love that unique round one!
ReplyDeleteit's all really pretty, especially in a collection! I know I will definitely think of you the next time I see green glass :-) I know my mom has a green glass planter, but she uses it, otherwise I'd send it to you!
ReplyDeleteYou have quite the collection! My favorite is the glass light bulb. It even more special that your grandpa used to own it :)
ReplyDeleteAll your green glass is beautiful! Love the green and blue number!
ReplyDeleteI love it all! I've just noticed the last few months how attracted to colored glass I am. I haven't bought much...yet....but I am so drawn to it. I did buy a very cute red and orange vase for $1 at a yard sale last weekend. Maybe I'll post a pick sometime. :)
ReplyDeleteI think as long as you are finding good uses for it you haven't got too much. :)
I have to say at least you have a collection that can be displayed. One of my most favorite things to collect is stationery. I cant really display it but drive my husband nuts when we move and he has to carry boxes and boxes and I am talking about moving box size. But now that I think about it. It seems the amount is getting smaller. I think he is getting rid of them on the sneak lol
ReplyDeleteI love seeing what you've done with all of your green glass! I especially love how you used it in the bathroom. You're giving me inspiration to do something similar ;) I really need something to hold all of my brushes.
ReplyDeletei think they look great and are of GOOD use for you!! hey, its ok to collect! LOL
