Presumably the green and white piece is a sugar bowl that once belonged to a complete set of 1960s or 70s dishware? I’m using it to house mini glue sticks instead. Fifty cents at a yard sale. The wee orange bud vase was on the 25 cent table at a church tag sale. Orange isn’t usually my color, but I loved the shape and style. Plus for a quarter I certainly wasn’t going to leave it there.

This jaunty little scamp is a small ceramic cookie jar that’s marked “Japan” on the bottom. I have no idea why there is a tiny frog on his head or why no one else at the local Goodwill snapped this up for a mere $2.99! Ugly cute and mildly tacky things have always floated my boat and spun my pinwheels so this was no exception. Amazingly enough it does not coordinate with my kitchen decor so it’s adorning the top of the big honking jewelry box in the bedroom closet where it’s just perfect for storing hair clips and barrettes.
