I love to bargain and I love purple. This is the first time I have seen an amethyst Mason jar in person and I LOVE these little bobbins...
Do you knw about these jars? I have read that they were made of clear glass that contained magnesium. When the magnesium was exposed to light, it turned the jars purple. That was a lucky accident. It's local too.The jars are fairly rare and I was lucky to get this one at a good price...of course now I want to collect more. I do love to go to estate sales and poke around, dirty hands and all.
I am hoping to get the rest of my plants in the ground today if I can keep Bonnie and Clyde (seen here at the Memorial Day parade) occupied. Big plans for tomorrrow...I will write about it next week if I can get some good photos. Until then, thanks for checking in and keep your eyes open for amethyst glass jars for me!
Thank you for visiting Hollyhocks!
