Bowled over

I got completely sucked into my Pinerest this morning looking at bowls! I love my collection! Most of mine are collected from a local Goodwill. I have mentioned them before. But this morning I decided to document them a little better. I have many wooden bowls I have collected at the Goodwill ... using them for art pieces. I think they have become a little too expensive these days for what they are. And you really have to check to make sure the wooden ones do not have cracks. I usually have my rocks in one large wooden bowl but changed it up a little.

Next week ... the box/container collection (mostly David's). That is intense!  

Week after that ... woven baskets!

Here is a little sample of my collection. Goodwill finds that I simply could not leave behind:

 

From my friend, Gerrie (with the rocks she gave me).

 
My mom's tortoise glass bowl she bought in Malta in the 70's. 

 
This is an very old pottery bowl I found in a vacant house next door to us in Malta, circa 1970's. It has something stamped on the side. (Glazed on the inside).

This is a small (hand-painted?) Scandinavian bowl I found so long ago in an junk store in San Angelo, Texas.

 

Bought this lovely footed bowl at a Mountlake Terrace street fair from the artist. 

Not really a bowl but I use it for one. Found at some junk store 1990's.
