    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    What comes immediately to my mind is outdoor theaters and those salve applicators that were a fabric ball dauber on the end of a thin twisted stem of metal.

    Need assistance with cleaning rucksack - M39

    I believe mink oil is supposed to soften and condition the leather, and I know for sure will darken it. I've read that anything gentle enough to use to clean skin can be used to clean leather. I tried a shea butter bar soap and a wash cloth to clean a couple of leather couches I received, and it...

    Amazing! Fabulous! Awesome!

    Probably "redonkulous." :D Yes, I can't imagine using "amazeballs" either. I really hated the drawn out exclamation of, "sweet," when I was in high school, and I hated it when it seemed to make a comeback in recent years. I also cannot stand "epic." This is one word over used and ascribed to...

    Vintage Coffee Makers

    I've been looking at the one by Cuisinart, seems to have good reviews. Unless, of course, you can find one in thrift. I'm going to try that first, myself. If I can't find anything, I may get the Cuisinart one.

    Coffee, grind your own?

    Definitely! Fresher and more flavor that way. :)

    sick and tired of new scrap appliances.

    I love our Kitchen Aid stand mixer, it is very reliable and we've had it nearly 20 years, but there is no room for improvement. It has all the features we need. I can't wait to go back to the local antiques shop I recently visited. They have one of those old coffee grinders. It'll grind my...

    sick and tired of new scrap appliances.

    I agree it's such a shame. When buying a new this or that as a teen, having to replace an item, I wondered, "couldn't we just get it repaired?" I was answered with, "it would actually be more expensive to do that than just buy a new one." I couldn't understand, why wouldn't the companies make...

    Cankles!

    I hope you answered that with something like, "Hmmm, the difference between us is that I can't choose the size of my ankles and you choose whether or not to be a jerk. Too bad you choose unwisely." Ugh, what a rude dude.

    Cankles!

    I'm the same as the others that don't have true cankles, but rather strong, thick calves and wider feet. I find I can wear some knee high boots, but they have to be the ones that stretch. As for ankle straps, I tend to wear ones with wider straps or straps that sit higher, more toward my calf...

    What katie did.... vintage lingere

    I'm not familiar with those sizes, but I know you measure, pulling the tape snug but not tight, just under the breasts at the widest part and add 4 or 5 inches to get the band size. I found I am 34, although by modern bra US sizing I am 36. They said that if you end up having to go down a band...

    The best face powder in the world!

    If you like Lauder's powders but want only a little bit more coverage, have them try the DW Mineral powder on you. If you use a fluffy brush, you'll get light coverage. I personally like Besame powder over my complexion products when I want more coverage, or with just concealer if I want lighter...

    Revlon cherries in the snow V besame Cherry red

    I remember having Revlon CITS and not liking it as it was more pink than red, as stated by the others. I have and love Besame CR. It is a deep full on cherry red.
