Eggs and Spheres

AS YOU MAY (OR MAY NOT) KNOW I LIKE EGGS.
AND SPHERES.

BUT NOT JUST ANY EGGS.
BUT JUST ABOUT ANY SPHERES.

WHICH HAS LED ME TO YET ANOTHER COLLECTION:
THE EGG HOLDER.

I FOUND THESE FOUR EGG HOLDERS AT AN ANTIQUE STORE
HERE IN TUCSON, AND THEY FIT THE EGGS BUNNY BANANA
PAINTED ME SO WELL THAT IT WAS OBVIOUSLY MEANT TO BE:


AND A NEW OBSESSION BEGAN!
I STILL HAVEN'T FOUND ANY AS AMAZING
AS THOSE FOUR THOUGH.
THE COLORS ARE GREAT!

THESE ARE MY VERY FIRST EGG HOLDERS.  KIND OF HARD TO SEE.
THESE AREN'T ACTUALLY EGG HOLDERS.
THEY WERE AT GOODWILL AS LIQUOR GLASSES WITH
A POURER THINGY, BUT I JUST TOOK THEM AND TOLD
THE CASHIER THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE A PRICE TAG
SO I GOT THEM FOR $0.50 EACH WHICH IS THE
STANDARD PRICE I'D SAY.
(DEPENDING ON WHETHER YOU ARE AT AN
ANTIQUE SHOP OR A THRIFT STORE.)
BUT THEY ARE SOOOOO HARD TO FIND!!!
(REAL ONES I MEAN.)
NOT SURE WHAT I'LL DO WITH THEM QUITE YET.

MY MOTTO:
COLLECT FIRST, FIGURE THE REST OUT LATER.


I FOUND THESE AT THE SAME ANTIQUE STORE THAT
I FOUND THE MULTI COLORED PASTEL ONES.
IT WAS AN EGG HOLDER KIND OF DAY THAT DAY.

ANOTHER ONE THAT IS NOT
ACTUALLY AN EGG HOLDER.
(I THINK IT'S A SAKE GLASS!)
SOMETIMES I GET OVERLY ANXIOUS
FOR IT TO BE ONE, AND SINCE I USUALLY
FIND THEM AT THRIFT STORES
THEY ARE NEVER LABELLED!
ONCE I GOT THIS ONE HOME I
REALIZED IT'S A LITTLE TOO BIG.
BUT I THINK WITH SOME PAINT
AND DECORATION
I MIGHT BE ABLE TO MAKE IT WORK!

SOLO WOOD ONE
MORE SPHERES AND EGGS.
I FOUND THAT WEIRD HOLEY EGG IN THE CENTER
AT A THRIFT STORE AS WELL.
I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS.
BUT WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT IT IS PROBABLY AMAZING!

A SPHERE COOKIE JAR THAT I USE
AS A SPATULA HOLDER.
THE LID MAKES IT A FULL SPHERE.
(YET ANOTHER THRIFT STORE FIND!
THERE'S A THEME HERE!)
SO THE MORAL OF THIS BLOG IS:
EGGS AND SPHERES ARE THE BEST.
