Some old tarnished copper canisters

 As you can see they are really in need of a good polishing. Some people like the old tarnished look but I love polishing copper to see them come back all shiny and new. These are so dirty that they are starting to cause pitting. The polished one is the one on the left and dirty one on the right.

Almost everything is for sale unless...

Everything is sale unless one of my grandchildren wants it.  I have several vintage globes that I have collected over the years. Most of them are bigger and up high on a couple of shelves. One of my grandsons spotted this one and fell in love with it.

Antique Ironstone Fish mold

This is a 20th Century antique white ironstone mould in the shape of a fish, made by Societe Ceramique of Maastricht and stamped and marked #5 on the bottom. In nice aged condition see photos for condition. There are are few firing faults and age spots, most notable on the underside where there is a repair on the bottom of clay which most likely happened in the firing.  Available: https://posh.mk/6HOhypx2E1b

Watercolors with Vinessa Redford

I recently inherited some watercolor paints in the tube. There were various makes. I signed up for a free course with Vinessa Redford through the National Gallery of Canada. I had a bit of a hard time keeping up on the live course as I didn't go through and check to see if all the paints were good before hand so I got caught behind. From what I was able to keep up with was quite interesting. Here are some of my results which I cut into smaller works and mounted them on card stock and made book marks for my orders on bpagani@poshmark.ca  I highly recommend watching this video on the National Gallery of Canada when it is posted on YouTube. I will post the link when available. Also check out Vinessa Redford's work and other videos on https://www.pigmentsandmood.com/

Vintage small adjustable gooseneck magnifying glass on a metal base

 This is a vintage small adjustable gooseneck magnifying glass on a metal base.  It has a flexible neck for targeted close-up work. This is a pre-owned item and has signs of wear with slight scratches on the glass. This is one of those little randomthings that I fell in love with but posted it higher than I felt it would sell for and it Sold just like that. I was quite surprised. https://posh.mk/09n7ZJ2UE1b It was great for checking out little details on my handmade cards, bookmarks and labels.  I already have a few magnifying glasses so I let it go. It was purchased by a Horticulturalist in BC so that makes me happy.

Garden Gnome

 My cousin Ann and I were visiting my Aunt Joy while I was in BC years ago. While we were there she told us to take something from her cabinet to remember her by. We both declined as we felt we had enough with just her memories of her but she insisted. I don't remember what it was I took but Ann took the Gnome and immediately Aunt Joy said, no anything but that, I got it from Richard, her son in law. Ann was quite shocked and thought she may have been joking but she was dead serious. So Ann took something else. We left and laughed about that Gnome the rest of the day and still do when anyone talks about Gnomes. Anyhow I think I found the exact Gnome today in a 2nd hand store. I know my cousin doesn't need anymore  Tchotchkes  so I will sell it. The story is good enough to remember our Aunt Joy who we miss very much. Available: https://posh.mk/TB4kbe8TE1b
