RE: The Great Glassware collection, thanks to Mum!

in Hive Collectors • 6 months ago

After all, one man's trash, is another women's treasure!

One women's trash is another man's treasure 😃

A great and large collection of your mother's glasses. It was certainly not a problem for you to host a large number of guests 🙂
Are the coats of arms on these 6 cups in the first two pictures the coats of arms of some Scottish families?
Now I remembered... I also have some old glasses, the same shape, but with pictures of cars. I have to look for them. That will be an interesting post…

Sort:  

Haaa yes and we did have a lot of house parties in the 80's, but the dads drank beer and the mothers drank West Coast Coolers (yummm) and not much else, so the glasses weren't even really needed then either!

Shame I didn't have them when I was a cocktail bartender for many years in restaurants...

But how gorgeous are those coloured glasses from their wedding in 1960!

Seriously gorgeous, never been used. Not once.

Yes that's right. the coat of arms for some Scottish clans.

Mum's dad was Scottish.

Even today sorting through her old jewelry box finding lots of old Scottish things- like broaches and stuff.

If you have vintage glasses with pictures of cars on them, I think that someone would pay a lot of money for them...I would love to see them too!

i will look for those car pic glass 🙂

I don't see that you have posted any cocktail recipes... with your many years of experience, you would probably have something to suggest and show?

Yes, you're right, I actually have not posted any recipes here and now you've got me thinking- it's been so long...BUT, they are all coming back to mind now.

I don't think I've got any photos of me WITH said cocktails, but I do have a couple of photos of me as a cocktail bartender back in the day..

I'll have to dig those up and do a nice tasty post for you shall I! 😃

Speaking ogwhich, make sure you look out for next Sunday post in the Collector community..I think that you will appreciate that!

Now I want a cocktail! 🤣

Now I want a cocktail!

Don't dig through old pictures, dozers and shaker in hand, some ice, alcohol and juice, phone in photo mode....and here's the post 🙂

make sure you look out for next Sunday post in the Collector community

I definitely will! 😀

Ok well unfortunately I don't have any of the 'tools' of the trade with me these days, but I ma going to the Melissa Etheridge concert tomorrow night with my best friend, so I think that you have just convinced me to have a couple of cocktails before hand!

(which will cost an arm and a leg here in Melbourne...)

Hmmm, food for thought! 🤔

It's now 1:20am, so I say, goodnight, see you tomorrow night! 😊

Good night and have a great time tomorrow at the concert😀

OMG did I ever!

Video to come tomorrow!

And cocktails too! 😃
