Over the weekend, I visited Columbus Architectural Salvage, which has to be one of the coolest places to visit in Central Ohio. Aside from worrying about what has happened to the houses where all these things came from, I find myself wondering about the stories they could tell. Exactly how many pairs of shoes did this shoe form help create? And were these Ball jars used to can peaches or tomatoes? Don't get me started on the door knobs ...
The fig picture is a special gift for my dear friend Leann who gave me a fig tree for my last birthday. Isn't she a genius?

I am crazy for these pix! Love the shoe forms. I bought a bunch of little ones in a "junque" store in Apalachicola, FL, several years ago.
Thanks, Jane - I had a pretty hard time not collecting a bunch of things and taking them home. I could start a serious collecttion of shoe and glove forms.
Tony calls dibs on the blue Mason jars.
Cheater. I saw them first. (wink)
