I was so upset that I didn't get to go with Jonni & miss wilma & the gals to Burlington, but I was going to town to get hubby some more screws for MY projects & there was a village wide yard sale.. Well I passed one with all these cool Ball Jars, some are half gallons; they were marked $2 each, then marked down to $1. I was looking through them to see which ones looked the best, when the guy manning the sale said "I'll make you a deal on the whole table, $5".. Can you say sold!

Wow, Lisa, what a find you have on your table. I often look at my canning jars and see the square ones or the ones with really thick glass and wonder how long ago they were made.

Oh, wonderful! I just love those old blue jars. Great find. I'm surprised they weren't snatched up sooner. Lucky for you they weren't.

Those jars look great, especially next to the good looking chicken and the sweet old tablecloth. How nice they found a home with you. Karin
