Silver - "ish" Sunday

I'm joining all the Silver lovers over at Gypsy Fish Journal for another Silver Sunday.
Drop on by to see all the pretties!

Not real silver, but silver-ish, this is a vintage Gailstyn hammered aluminum ice bucket that
is a family piece.  The tongs are not original to the piece, but the little cut crystal glasses are
the ones my mother-in-law always used for the cocktail hour that she so enjoyed!







The roses are from my garden.



Thanks for coming by to visit on Silver Sunday.  Hope to see you again next month.

  1. Beautiful. In a recent purging of my "stuff", I gave my silver collection to my step-daughter and she loves it. I'll admit I do miss it, however, that being said, it wasn't very pretty or beautiful stuck in the back of the cabinet. New beginnings bring new treasures!

  6. Thanks ladies, I appreciate you coming by for this month's Silver Sunday!

    My roses are suffering from months of the summer heat here in California, but as the weather cools down a bit, they will be back in full force. They need their Fall feeding of Bayer's All In One, which will take them through til Christmas barring a real cold snap.

    Thanks again for coming by,
    Candy
