Winter Bird, Frosty Window, and Other Snapshots

The plant nursery shop had a variety of birds made from natural materials.  I thought this one was pretty cute.

There is a local store that sells a small selection of close-out items.  Based on the box, I would say these are from a very long time ago, perhaps when I was a child. 

I like the combination of plaid and print in this second-hand shirt.  I'm trying to decide whether it's inspiration for a quilt or not. 

The windshield was covered with frost one morning.  My husband turned on the car and immediately cranked up the defrost.  I didn't get my phone/camera out and on fast enough to get the frost before it began to melt but I thought this was an interesting photo anyway.

I love a vintage Singer as much as anyone but I resisted the purchase of this machine, even though it was only $20.00. 

This is the cover of a match box.  Isn't it a beauty?!  The box is about 5" long by about 2½" wide.

I was intrigued by the variety of writing and decoration on these milk bottles and logo variations for the same brand of milk.  I think these were all whole milk.

And just for the fun, glitz, and glitter, this is what a stage full of tubas looks like.  (Do you know how hard it is to take a photo of all that shine?!)  Attending Merry TubaChristmas has become a tradition.

Wishing you a good weekend!
