Milk glass reminds me of my childhood. I can't pinpoint the memories, I just feel them. I have been searching for pieces in thrift shops and garage sales and have decided not to pay more than a few dollars on each piece. So far I haven't spent more than $2.00 on Fenton, Westmoreland, Hazel Atlas and Indiana milk glass pieces. I like the snowy white milk glass and I am partial to hobnail.
Just recently I found this Fenton candy dish at a garage sale for $2.00 - couldn't resist it.
And I found this sweet Fenton perfume bottle vase (1930's) for only $.99 at the Salvation Army thrift store:
I also found 8 more Hazel Atlas candy dishes at various thrift stores to add to one that was my mother's. I would like 3 more! I use them as salad/fruit bowls and I paid between $.39 - $.79 for each:
This is a sweet Indiana Glass Grape Harvest candlestick that I bought yesterday for $.99:
I'm not sure when to stop buying milk glass - haha - any suggestions??

Passion of Milkglass, collecting.
I have been slowing picking up milk glass as well. It is inexpensive and it just looks so pretty with any decor. Love the bowls.
ReplyDeleteYou have the best collection of milk glass. My mother has some pieces but can you believe it is something that I don't collect (yet). Seeing all these great collections while blogging is really dangerous...makes me want to start new collections.
ReplyDeleteJane
Very pretty. Love that candy dish. I see milk glass as being such a great decor addition that goes season to season. How do you know if an item is milk glass?
ReplyDeleteI'm partial to milkglass to! My first piece was one filled with bubble bath when I was little. It is hobnail,I use if as a vase. You've scored some great ones!! Love them
