Sorry, I really don't like complicated rules for these memes, so I have tried to simplify this down to the minimum. Don't be shy, we have fun every week. Join us if you can.
This week, I would like to show you a few of my bear items. These are really a fun collectible. I always smile when I see some of my bear treasures.
These are a pair of brown bear salt and pepper shakers. I purchased these at an estate sale for $3.00. I love the spaghetti bodies of these little bears. I think they are very unusual and are a nice addition to my vintage bear items.
Next, I have several of my bear glasses....some may call these Swanky Swigs. This glass is one of my larger type of glasses. Notice the cute little bears stealing honey and the bees coming after them.
Here is the other side view of the glass. Don't you think these are so cute and happy little glasses?
This is another larger glass that I have, but the design is a little different but similar just the same. This one has pine trees, and one little bear stealing the honey...but it has the same angry bees!
This is the smallest glass I have, this is more of a juice glass. Still, the theme is the same, bears after honey and the bees not too pleased.I hope you enjoyed a look at my vintage glasses and salt and pepper shakers in a bear theme. Be sure to link in to this post and show off some of your vintage treasures today. Have a great week everyone!
Suzanne, hahaha...those glasses are too cuuute :)
ReplyDeleteThe salt and pepper shakers are adorable. Because I find food in everything, the "fur" reminded me of chocolate Rice Krispy treats.
ReplyDeleteSuzanne: Those glasses are great, cute and fun without being cutesy. Just my style!
ReplyDeleteI've never seen spaghetti bears before -- just poodles. And I love the glasses!
ReplyDeleteLove em! The bees are the best!
ReplyDeleteI love the glasses! They would fit in my bee collection.
ReplyDeleteLove those glasses Suzanne! Great meme theme. Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI love the glasses! And for some reason my American Homemaker name on Mr. Linky says Cake Mix Cookies... LOL... so you can change the name of it to The American Homemaker if you like... ha ha ha
ReplyDeleteThose bear s&p and glasses are fun; I can see why you love them.
ReplyDeleteThose are just Too Cute!
ReplyDeleteI can remember how glasses used to be decorated like that...great memories!
Love the glasses and salt/pepper shakers. You would love the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee - bear collectibles everywhere. But not as cute as yours :)
ReplyDeleteReally love those cute glasses.
ReplyDeleteA really unique salt and pepper shaker.
those glasses are amazing! your home must be one big treasure trove goodness you have some of the neatest things!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice collection of bear items. You don't see those often, the glasses are just awesome!
ReplyDeleteCute glasses! I used to have a porridge plate with a tiny bear sitting under a wild strawberry very peacefully.
ReplyDeleteHow much fun! I feel that I know you from reading your comments with Gitz so today I came over to say HI!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to try to do this next week, I love the idea.
I think those salt and pepper shakers are darling, every time I'm in an antique store there is at least 1 booth with the cutest vintage S&P shakers. Next time I'm buying a set! (Love the glasses too)
Happy Thursday~Robin Rane'

Hi Suzanne!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty certain my grandmother had some bear/bee glasses like yours. Brought back some memories for me that were long forgotten. I think your bear salt and pepper shakers are quite unusual and interesting...very cute! Thanks for sharing them!
Adorable glasses-I love the bears' smiling faces and their "clothes".
ReplyDeleteThe S&P bears are too cute!
Thanks for hosting VTT. I've always enjoyed it and I'm glad it has a new home.
ReplyDeleteI love those glasses and the s&p shakers are so unique!
ReplyDeleteOk, I FINALLY did a post.....this ice storm is doing weird things to me!!!!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen anything made like your salt and pepper shakers. Very cool. The glasses are adorable. Your collection is in excellent shape. Bears always make a cute subject.
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting and sharing.
I don't see Mr. Linky. I'm playing along today: http://litandlaundry.blogspot.com/2009/01/vintage-thingies-thursday-bay-bridge.html
ReplyDeleteI love those glasses. I have an old book about "Little Bear" who looks just like that character. I'll dig it out. Love those glasses. It's so fun to see people collecting around a theme.
Oh Suzanne! I'm coming over right away for a frosty cold glass of milk out of those adorable glasses!
ReplyDeleteI am in love.
And the bears...so oddly attractive. I don't think I'd want them though. I think they look like dust catchers! lol.
This is my first time playing, and I think this is such a great idea! Love all those bears. Actually, I love anything with bears on it!
ReplyDeleteI love those glasses. I'm going to participate today. My first time. I love looking at all the entries.
ReplyDeletehow cute are these things????? thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteSuzanne - Well, I am running a little on the late side today. The bear glasses are utterly adorable! ~Kelly

I love the whimsical design on the glasses - so very cute!
ReplyDeleteOkay, it's 8:00 p.m. and I made it through all the entries today! You're last; well, actually you were first, but the last one I'm commenting on! Those glasses are cute! I don't think I've ever seen ones with bears on them before.
ReplyDeleteHi Suzanne!
ReplyDeleteFrom one Bear collector to another--your bears are the cutest! And the Swanky Swigs, besides being so very cute too--are also very unique! Enjoyed!
Blessings to you!
