Fitz & Floyd "LIP SERVICE" teapot, the love story: Nobody touches this one! It holds a special place in my heart. It was love at first sight, back in 1978, where she was on display at the old Hecht Co. store. I had just moved into my first apartment, and I was on a really strict budget. At only $25., I was still too broke to splurge. I forced myself not to think about her, and I thought I would never see her again. Until one day in 2003, when I got the notion to search for her on Ebay. Low and behold, there she was on day one of her auction. It was meant to be. I just knew she would be mine. After days of duking it out in bids, for a little under $70., she finally came home. I'm so happy that my competitor didn't know how much I was willing to pay.
Cherub legs: In 1994, I made my most favorite flea market find. It reminds me, so much, of my own chubby legs.
Moody brown babies: I bought these at a drugstore in the 60's, when I was 10. They represent the many moods of me.
This beautiful, lifesize antique doorbell is actually musical. I mounted it on scrapbook paper, framed it, and hung it on the wall.
