Hi all, I'm loving this thread, my other half still doesn't get the whole glass obsession so I'm limited to the conservatory for any displays, the rest of my collection languishes, in the attic, in boxes, waiting for its turn to get out!!
I change the groups fairly frequently, and at the moment its groupings of Riihamaki, Czech and Mdina. Compared to some of the other fantastic displays my collection is quite basic, but its what floats my boat.
Cheers, David :sc:

Since we are admitting we have bathroom glass......  I am including an image of ours... mixed with a little ceramic and metal...

And to prove that I can adhere to the "less is more" philosophy held dear by some members, I am including a couple of "less is more" arrangements in the house......

Peggy pointed out to me when I showed her the pictures that they really represent "less is necessary" because the spaces are small.....   ;D

My loo, well all the books on glass have got to live somewhere (they are mostly out of shot)....

All very normal. ;D

John
HI glassobsessed, I love your loo! Can you tell me anything about the blue knobbly bottle top left? I have one similar and do not know what it is. (apart from being a blue knobbly glass bottle of course!)
