Fun Collections

Snowdomes {or snow globes, that's what I've always called them} My daughter has been collecting them for a couple years now. Last week I found four really neat vintage domes to add to her collection.

I found a great article with a little history behind Snowdomes. And if you want to see a true Snowdome collector, check out Andy Zito's Collection~ WOW, it's amazing!!

Flickr finds:

I loved this twist on the Snowdome, you can read more about it over at KraftyKatina's Blog.

We're taking a road trip later this month, my favorite part is stopping at little quirky shops along the way. I'm sure we'll pick up a Snowdome or two♥

  3. I love kitschy little globes! Whenever Bud and I are goodwilling, I always let him buy one if he can find one...we have limited our finds to Christmas, but it would be fun to have the vacationing ones, too!
