But it is truly their loss and your gain.<br /><br />I am curious as to what a biscuit barrel actually is. Is it like a cookie jar or was it supposed to hold real biscuits? I think biscuits can mean different things in different countries. Does it have a date stamped on it? Really interesting things you are finding.<br /><br />Thanks again for sharing them. I truly enjoy seeing them.<br /><br />God bless.Mrsupolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01563854387767106508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1357105223288312642.post-34660211228023282292011-10-31T01:32:27.865-04:002011-10-31T01:32:27.865-04:00I think these are so great to do crafts with you c...I think these are so great to do crafts with you can resell again and as basket fillers.Buttons are always needed the Dutch wind mill is very pretty as is the sea shell bowl.<br />The bowl filled with nuts and covered by saran wrap and ribbons would be a great Christmas gift. Or maybe put some soaps with sea shells.<br />The windmill would look nice in a basket with tea and two cups and saucers.
