I collect old jars. My best find ever was an old 50's brown glass beer bottle on the bottom of the lake when it was so low it exposed parts of the lake that had never seen sun.
Hi there! Love the jar photo.. did you see our old jar on my blog with the raspberry jam that my husband made? Have you seen the tiny little Ball jars that are salt and pepper shakers? I have 2 sets, one is so old it has the old galvanized lids.. one set is newer. And recently I found a DARLING Ball Jar that is about 3 1/2 inches tall that has a slit in the lid.. it's a Piggy Bank!! I'll photograph them and put them on my blog soo so you can see them. Love old jars!! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Ah yes, it's canning season. I used to can a bit, after watching Mom do it. Now? I drink whiskey from them. That's my extent of using these glass jars these days. hahahaha!
I can remember when i lived in the bronx NY we used to someimes look for old bottles, and someone had a metal detector.I sometimes see those still for sale. Richard from Amish Stories.
WHAT is it about all the old jars and glassware that is SO VERY attractive?? We were recently at a CHARMING outdoor wedding where they used these jars filled with glorious wildflowers at the reception.
Hey Farmchick,what kind of jar is that standing on your porch rail reflecting the sultry evening light??? Or is it early morning?

I love the old jars. So much more charming than the modern ones made today. Nice color, too.
ReplyDeleteLiesl - This is an Atlas brand antique canning jar. A tiny little half pint jar that was too cute to pass up in the antique store.
ReplyDeleteTexwisgirl - We were out catching fireflies at dusk. I couldn't get a good picture of them in the jar.

I have a thing for old jars, this one is a keeper. I love the hint of colour in the background of what is surely a beautiful summer sunset.
