| I had swore that I would not buy anymore Christmas ornaments, but I couldn't resist these beautiful pink Christmas by Krebs ornaments. The Christmas by Krebs mfg company is in Roswell NM, about a 100 miles from here. H's freight company used to go down there and haul ornaments out by the trailer load. I have quite a few of their ornaments as the owners used to send boxes to H in appreciation of his company's careful handling of their "fragile cargo" |
 |
| Thank goodness the ornaments were sold together, so I didn't have to leave any behind! |
 |
| There were four of these pale blue bell shaped ornaments ...Christmas by Krebs. |
 |
| Some odds and ends blue ornaments and a beautiful tree topper! |
 |
| There were 6 boxes of the vintage Coby Glass ornaments.... |
 |
| $3 for the whole box!!! |
 |
| .25 for a sweet ceramic rose container.... |
 |
| These towels reminded me of some my Grandma used to have. She worked as a sales person in the linen dept. at Levines Dept Store back in the 60's...anyone remember Levines? |
 |
| I think my Grandma must have spent a good deal of her check on towels and sheets when she worked there....she just loved linens! |
 |
| These thick luxery towels were made by Callaway in the 60,s and 70's. The big bag held 3 bath towels, 4 hand towels, and 12 wash cloths....they were all in excellent condition, $3 for all...what a deal! |

I love the pale blue bells, they look so delicate. Lucky you that "H" took such good care of his cargo. I remember buying towels like those at The May Co. when I was a VERY young bride. They did last a good 30 years before I retired them to Goodwill. Thank you for sharing..... Candy

Hi Penny! My Grandma had the pink and blue pattern of those towels. And those pink ornaments were new in 1980's....We purchased cases to sell in our flower shop.

ReplyDeleteDefinitely a trip down memory lane with those ornaments. My mother still has a lot of them though every year, it seems a few more break.
ReplyDeleteWhat a deal on the ornaments! My folks had towels just like that years ago. Wonder why they don't make them like that anymore? I loved your pilgrims, too, really cool works of folk art.
