The Beginning of a Junky Weekend

 Yes, I know I am supposed to be in time-out on the junk but Labor Day weekend is the last hurrah of Summer so how could I resist.  I kicked off the weekend with a quick stop on Friday at the SST.  Not a big haul but enough to continue to keep me going back.  The small case has dividers in side for 8-track tapes (ha!!).  They will becoming out and a rescue is in order.  The milk glass compote looks like Fenton but there are no markings.
This flatware is stainless so I don't think it is very old but I love the detail on the handles and it has the look.  These over-sized snifters hold a strange attraction for me.  I have no idea where I will find room for yet another one but when I do I'll be ready!
Two more stops on the junky weekend to follow!

Happy hunting Kathy! That flatware reminds me of the bone handled silverware my mom has. Very cool looking!

I haven't junked at all this weekend. Just taking it easy. What does the SST stand for? Or maybe you don't want to give that away....

Of course you can't pass up a junkin' opportunity. Love that black box and those handles are mighty pretty!

Time out is overrated anyway! I look forward to seeing what you do with the tape case. Somebody I know has silverware like that but I can't for the life of me remember who. It's going to drive me nuts!

I love those big brandy snifters, too. A group of just about anything (lace, spools, flatware) looks better in glass.

I have a very similar set of flatware that I use frequently. I love the weight of the pieces and the buttery yellow of the handles.
