This summer will be my first time ever canning what I grow! It appears that I need a "bubble popper" and a top space measurer, and all I am seeing online for those tools are ones made of plastic. I did a search for vintage but nothing was coming up. In the meantime I have ordered a granite ware...
Anyone have any suggestions from history that can be helpful with dealing with the spread of Coronavirus? Things we can do at home and while out in public--anything from prepping, prevention and psychological well-being?
(Bartenders or anyone: How do I edit the title of the thread to correct...
My husband and I watched the Wizard of Oz last night. We've both watched it countless times over the years, naturally. My husband brought up the rumor about the hanging munchkin which was new to me. What are your thoughts about this:
Unless the "proof" is doctored somehow, that's eerie. It...
I've been using vintage (pre-1960s) soap for close to ten years now and love it! I've gotten my soaps at estate sales, antique shops and flea markets. I'm allergic to almost all modern fragrances but for some reason the wonderful subtle scents of vintage soaps don't trigger an allergy. I only...
I bought these at an estate sale and love them! They are 14" tall and have lovely etching and ornate feet. I wondered if they had been electric lamps at one time? They both are hollow but one looks like a lot of wax dripped downward through the tiny hole. They have only tiny holes at the tops so...

My vintage house never had a dishwasher and I have been content doing them by hand for many years. I would like some suggestions for vintage-y and/or elegant dish drying racks. Presently I have a wire rack but it's not gentle on my more fragile dishes and china. Normally I dry my dishes by hand...
Just returned from the mall and have come up with a list of why the stores within them are leaving which leads to mall closures. Please add your own reasons:
They play loud poppy music that only a segment of teenagers would like.
They play that music too loud. I should want to linger and buy...
Americans began the 20th century in bustles and bowler hats and ended it in velour sweatsuits and flannel shirts—the most radical shift in dress standards in human history. At the center of this sartorial revolution was business casual, a genre of dress that broke the last bastion of...
Hi, Ladies. I am newly divorced after a decade and a half of marriage! As I adjust to my new "status" I am having a hard time with unwanted attention. I no longer wear a wedding band and am wondering if that is a part of it? I'm not dressing any differently. I've also been dealing with some...
I bought a set of vintage copper clad bottom Revere Ware on ebay and one of the pots has pitting on the inside bottom (wasn't mentioned in the auction). I'm happy with the set overall and I know shipping it back for a partial refund will be a hassle. Does anyone know if it's still safe to use...
I've noticed if someone mentions Fox News as a source of information in an online chat, that person is quickly pounced upon and the information dismissed without question. I'm now seeing people assuming that if they disagree with someone, that that person is getting their data from Fox News...
I want to improve my a.m. radio reception and am seeking advice on purchasing a new antenna (do you own one? Is it effective?) as well as how to improve the signal in my home. I figured this would be a great place to ask!
