Some People Will Collect Anything

[carlsonjok]

Not me, so much, but my wife collects mid-century barware. While we have 17 acres, we only have an 1800 sq ft house and her collection is taking up a not insubstantial portion the available flat surfaces. In fact, in recent weeks she started putting some into my home office where I store my (thankfully more compact) collection. We've talked about only displaying a few from each set and storing the rest, but that is a big effort and we really need to get a storage unit because anything stored in our barn tends to become home to spiders and mud dobbers. To be fair, though, most of her collection was gifts from me. I really like hunting for sets for her.

These are Libbey Cavalcade, which I found at Sweet Lorain in Cleveland. I had to get them since my wife is also an equestrian.
