Canisters

I, like many crafty vintage collector bloggers out there, love canisters- great for sewing odds and ends, or chocolate Easter eggs (good at hiding them, I should say). SO when I stumbled across these on my lunch break yesterday I 1) thanked the Lord I was at work near an op shop and 2) bought them.
So cute! I had a very envious customer behind me in the line most upset she didn't see them first. Sucker!

There was also a big basket of fabric- yes, I looked like a twit when I tipped it upside down, old lady, but I got fabric and you didn't! $3 for the massive bit of floral and polka dots, $1.50 for the others. The blue with white daisy's is an apron.


And I thought I'd freak people out like I get freaked out when I scroll onto a shot like this! Missing teeth! But here is the problem- see those 2 tiny gaps left and right of the bottom 2? Teeth have to fit there. I can't get a 5c piece on the side in those gaps, and big fat adult teeth are meant to go there. Crap. Anyone know an orthodontist I could date?


My favourite part of the pic is the teeny tiny hairs on her nose! And the gap between her top teeth- apparently it means you'll be rich if you have one of those, and if you look at Madonna....
