Castle of my Dreams

I'd love to go to the beach and build a sandcastle this weekend

  1. G'day just found you on Theme Thursday. What a quirky little blog. Very cute. Do you make these or are they just the subject of your blog. I'm amazed you can find so many so suit your posts! Cheers :)

  2. I don’t make these. They originated in Eastern European countries in the 1800’s and became a cottage industry. JW Woolworth brought them to America after World War II for around 10 to 15 cents each and the rest is history. Many classics are still being individually mouth blown in Eastern Europe by families’ trying to make a living, lots are mass-machine produced in Japan. There are some beginning to be created by good American companies such as Cherry Designs Inc. http://www.cherrydesignsinc.com
