Hmmm..... I'm always up for something. I'm in need of buttons. I like hankies, and as far as sewing goes, I could always use bobbins, and notions. I have a few Longaberger's left. I have.....oh heck, I got lots. You should just tell me what your looking for and I'll dig it up somewheres.... lol!

I collect quite a few things - vintage kitchen linens, Wade tea figurines (the storybook characters), red & white enamelware, shabby chic, anything to do with spinning, weaving, quilting, knitting, etc.
I have tons of stuff and live in an apartment right now - so I could probably find something to trade!!!

I collect pottery. I have Frankoma, Hull, Jaeger, McCoy, Blue Mountain Pottery, Evangeline, McMaster. I have TOO much. Since we bought our smaller home much of it is packed in boxes as we simply have no room for it all. I also have tons of magazines,ie: old Taste of Home, Country Home, Traditional Home, Reminisce, Country Woman, Family, Better Homes and Gardens. I'd love to trade some for vintage linens of any kind, ie: full apron, embroidered tea towels, pillowcases,old chenille bedspread(can have holes), doilies. I also do crafts so we could work something out.

I collect cows (not cutesy ones), vintage postcards (from late 1800's- early 1900's, mostly holidays), vintage salt & pepper shakers and vintage tins :) And I seem to collect doilies and have to purchase more every time I go to the Thrift Store or Antique store! :)
Luanne,
Are Wade figurines the ones from Red Rose Tea?

Hi Sharon -
I was away on a "long weekend" - Wade figures are from the Red Rose tea boxes. I have quite a collection of them and I have them hanging on the wall in my kichen in old wood printers trays. They are so cute.
Thanks for asking! Luanne

Looking for vintage blue or blue and white dinner ware. Let me know if you came across any and we'll see what we can barter for. I have a variety of things we might trade.

My 40~something daughter likes kaleidoscopes, and I'd like to surprise her with one for Christmas. I have tons of fabric, buttons, craft books, some Wade tea figurines (animals I'd have to dig around to find), old cigar boxes and a lot of other "stuff" ... just ask. Willing to trade for a kaleidoscope.

I collect vintage glasses. I have recently picked up smurfs, Taz, diet pepsie, Tab(It's even hour glass shaped). I refuse to pay more than $1 anywhere. It makes for a fun game! |

Hi Bonnie in Minneapolis ~ I probably have the smallest rolling pin in the world! lol If you give me your address I'll send it to you. No need to trade anything! Best, Sharon
