Turquoise Jug


I wanted one of these! Great vintage turquoise and it all comes apart for cleaning and so you can admire the blown-glass insulated vacuum insides. Thank you, thrift store.

Comes apart for cleaning? Excellent.

I like your carafe! I notice that you have pomegranates in the picture. Would you mind sharing what you do with them? Do you juice them or eat them raw?

Is that a thermos? If it were, it's the loveliest thermos I've ever seen! If it's not, it's one of the loveliest jugs I've ever seen.

Hi. I have a sweater/laundry question after your last post. Thank you for sharing your creativity with clothing. It's very inspiring. My question is about drying sweaters. I use a clothesline exclusively and when putting sweaters on the line, they get stretched out. I've tried laying them out and shaping them, but then they look all wrinkled and need ironing. I don't mind ironing, but they just do not look the same as before. I have several sweaters and only one or two are acrylic. Some are wool, but mostly I have cotton. Do you have any suggestions for me? I have considered "borrowing" a firend's dryer for drying the sweaters, but that seems silly. Thanks for your time and assistance. Denise

How neat...! :)

Denise, I sometimes dry my cotton sweaters if I don't mind a little shrinkage. Otherwise, and always for wool, I lay flat to dry and then press lightly or steam with the iron if they need it afterwards. Not looking the same is just the price you pay for not dry-cleaning, in my experience. I don't mind paying it for the cleanliness and thriftiness of skipping the dry cleaner!

Beautiful! ...And I see yummy pomegranties in the background. Pomegranite season is my favorite season of all. :)
