Whimsy Facts

- I'm just a female who is a work in progress and imperfectly fun. I perfer a fanasty life and can't make prompt decisions but, did I mention?, I am imperfectly fun.----------------- Ornaments on these pages are reminiscent of “old world” ornaments which originated by craftsmen in Eastern Europe in 1847. The originals were a cottage industry. Individual molds were owned by various families. To make hard earned money, families carved molds from hard woods, blew molten glass into said molds, silver lined the inside, at first with mercury or lead, then later using a special compound of silver nitrate and sugar water. … (very dangerous) and meticulously hand painted the outside finishing off products with mica dust. I own a few true original treasures passed down from my family. For the most part my collection is relatively new. Ornaments are now mass produced …machine blown, still in Eastern Europe (Poland, Germany), Italy, Japan as well as the United States but oh the memories they evoke for my family who are beneficiaries of a few new babbles each year as well as friends who share my fascination.

THONGS! YES! I grew up calling flip flops "thongs," thanks to my mother, who also calls carbonated beverages "tonic" when everyone else in my area calls them "soda."
ReplyDeleteThe first time I ever heard the term "flip flops" was when I was visiting a slightly-older cousin. I was about six or seven. I referred to her "thongs," and in an incredibly annoying voice, she said, "They're called flip flops!" She then began an exaggerated walk, which caused them to make... well... a flip-flopping sound. The sound of the shoes and the sound of her voice made me want to pull the shoes off of her feet and beat her across the head with them... but I didn't.
Sorry. Just had to share that..
@S.F., I remember them being called "thongs" as well...
ReplyDeleteHolly, I'll take the black Converse sneakers :)
These are very clever.
ReplyDeleteThank you each and everyone!!! Silver Fox----you so made me laugh....I would have hit the ole batty aunt over the head as well....AND to top it off.....she was old enought to call them thongs. Regardless...I love my thongs !! :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great group of shoes. Even saw one pair that i will have to consider purchasing.
