GIVEAWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today I closed my booth at the antiques mall. It was such a relief! So in honor of this, I am holding a giveaway. If you are the lucky winner, you will receive a Chinese Cook Book, a vintage half apron, a single salt/pepper shaker with a Bakelite top, a jello ring, an Old Colony plate, and a vintage long rectangle table cloth with two matching napkins (it's white with black and red stripes).

All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post about your favorite vintage item you own and why it's your favorite. Then on August 7th, a week from Friday, I will draw a winner.

GOOD LUCK!!!!

Emily

P.S. I have added a little picture on the sidebar that links to this post. Feel free to use it in a blog post and you will receive an extra entry. Just leave me a comment with a link to that post.

I have a glass deviled egg plate that was from the fifties. I just love serving eggs in it, because they each have their own space.

Sorry about the closing of your booth, but...you seem ok with it!
I guess my favorite vintage thing would be the old anniversary clock that belonged to my grandparents. First thing I would do when I got to their house was wind it up for them!
Thanks for the great giveaway!

My favorite vintage item is a hand carved serving tray from Singapore that was purchased by my grandparents when they were missionaries there in the 60s. It means even more to me since they both passed before I was born. I'm still looking for the perfect place to display it!

My favorite vintage item? I had a book about "Entertaining and Being a Good Host." Some of the ideas were obviously dated (Be sure to provide plenty of cigarettes. Your kitchen staff must be well groomed.) It also had some cool illustrations I wanted to scan.

Unfortunately, my wife accidentally donated it to the Goodwill. Of course, when I went to look for it, it was no longer there.

Most of the vintage items I own are cookbooks. My favorite vintage cookbook is the copy of one that my mother owned - the first cookbook I was ever exposed to. Her copy fell apart and the parts she had left had no identifying information but thanks to the internet, I tracked it down in one day.

What nice vintage items!

I guess my favorite vintage item is an old 1948 sewing machine. It does need some work on it though.

HI Emily,

Coming over from your Mom's blog...I love a good give-away!

Just found your blog - so fun! My most favorite vintage thing was a black slip that my grandmother gave to me - so 1940's. I in turn gave in to a dear friend who not only looks just like my grandmother but now wears it often.

My house! Built in 1949 and picked out by my husband, who I met in the vintage store I worked at. The house is very simple but with nice details like intricate case molding. It is white with green trim, match my husband's eyes, teehee. He bought it when he thought he would be a bachelor his whole life and then met me. He told me his house needed something and if I wouldn't mind help decorate. That was our first date. A year later he carried me over the thresh hold. The house has had many tenents and owners but I feel we have given it the most love. It is only 780 square feet but cute and now home to our good ole days.
