The Glass Family

Oklahoma, it turns out, is no hotter than Washington, D.C. in June. With humidity, it's all relative. What you will only find in Oklahoma, however, is an epic antique/vintage shop called A Treasure In Time. I adore this store, from the old Pyrex percolators to the brassy mirrored perfume trays. The only thing I couldn't find in this two-story shop was a marble bust. Otherwise, I hit the glass dish jackpot.

I made it home from Ada, Oklahoma with these beauties tucked into my bag.

What I had to go without included this pink dream...

Like glistening candy.

  1. Ohhh! I collect this stuff too. Love Depression and carnival glassware. There is a special little guy who collects it at auctions all around the US, and he sells it at his home on his driveway (down the street from my house) twice a year on Labor Day and Memorial Day. I found some great old stuff, including some vintage Fiestaware!! I love the colors these things add to my house. If I ever get back to OK I have got to check out this store.

  2. Okay, that's it, I'm going to Oklahoma next time Blair gets sent there!
