It's a sickness...

I blame Jillsy and that dang Color My World photo/blog hop of hers.
She challenged us to find something turquoise.

No biggy - I posted a photo of a beautifully wrapped birthday present.
Then I sat down to eat.

Straight ahead of me on the windowsill were these...



Then I remembered this, and added it to the mix...



And that's when all hell broke loose... 
(strictly photographically speaking, of course!)






I'm sorry.




Unless you like colored glass... 
...then you're welcome.

  5. Well, I'll say thank you! Not only do I love colored glass and turquoise is one of my favorite colors...but this brought back memories for me! I had to laugh when I saw your thumbnail photo. My Dad collects these insulators and I have one sitting right on the desk in front of me...guess what color? :) He belonged to a club of insulator collectors and he used to go climb the poles and get the ones down that weren't being used anymore...too funny :) Thanks again for the beautiful photos!

    So after I left that comment about the insulators I went to find them (only 3 or 4 of them). I have not found them yet. I'm sure they are somewhere around here.
    thanks
