Let it all Shine.......

A new purchase for next years tree.  They are made from glass and are a larger size of ball than my older smaller ones.

The blue ones are larger than the new ones.  Through thorough inspection the blues ones are plastic and not glass. I should have bought more of the red ones now that I look back at what was available.

Big plastic blue, new red glass and an old red glass sit in a row. I inspected all my older glass balls and discovered that I only have three shiny brites out of all the collection.  I inherited some from my parents estate and among those were some my brother had bought when he was in college in 1967.  I bought some of the same size in 1972.  I have more with the name of rauch marked on them than any others. There a few that have HD marked on them and one medium shown above says made in USA.

I didn't put these on a tree this year.  We have too many decorations so I just kept these in a display jar.

We were home late from church today so that explains the lateness of this blog.  I hope are all well today.  I am grumbling today because it turned cold again today.  I hope that all are well.  Thanks for stopping by today.
