    A little dawn with baking soda, make a paste. Use a soft damp cloth with the paste in circles, then rinse and dry. Cleans teapots up nicely, won’t scratch.

    I'd have bubble-wrapped the rhino and packed him in a styrofoam medical insulation package and then boxed that. I shipped light bulbs from CT to California that way once without a bobble. The foam acts like a second box and padding at the same time.

    Regarding taped glass tumblers with gold designs... you can soak the glasses with the tape still on the glasses, in hot soapy water for at least 5-10 minutes.
    The tape will usually slide off without damage to the gold design... 👍

      My dermatologist said to use plain zinc oxide with nothing else in it because I have the most sensitive skin. If I can get the name there is another one that is great for people with allergies. Many people are allergic to the PABA in the Sunscreen. Also put it on when your
      skin is clean. If your put it on dirty skin it traps dirt and oils and then people break out. You can also premoisturize his skin with plain unscented organic mango butter. The particles are too big to clog pores. The sunscreen still works because it blocks the UVA/UVB even over moisturizer.

That was when she had her craft biz that she did on the side with her best friend ( they were both full time xray technicians) and their little biz was call “Country Companion’s) My mom always saved the money she made to make a very good Christmas for us kids.
    That napkin piece next to the roly poly glasses was cute. My Grandma used to order from Lillian Vernon in the 70’s because there was never anything with the correct spelling of my name. I still have the change purse she got me when I was 10 that has my name printed all over it ☺️sweet memories

    Packaging with padding and bubble wrap is important but I find the strength of the box is as important, the boxes have a tendency to crush in the corners. Reinforce corners to prevent crushing or reinforce the whole box with a strong cardboard. Insurance helps to give it more careful handling during the shipping process. I love “window shopping” with you, Jocelyn. You show that knowledge and hard work pays off.

    I worked at a department store back in the 80s in the shipping area. We had issue with a UPS driver throwing a packed box of bone china against the dock door. It was double boxed (decorative wedding gift wrapped) and made it to Boston ok. But the store manager contacted UPS and told them if it broke the driver was responsible for $150 for the china. It was a scary thing. How do i know this? I was the one that packed it, and then reported the driver to the store manager.

And I would buy things from it too. 35 -40 years later, I think I still have some of her little white shell shaped? trinket dishes around somewhere.. And the company that bears her name has a website so I guess they never went out of business like I thought they did, (Uh oh, I’m thinking “temptation” to spend some time there.) Lillian herself passed away in 2015. She was also a big philanthropist! Thank you Lillian🙏

    03:25 That one looks as though it's laser-cut teak. Teak is notoriously difficult to carve due to its tendency to chip and break, so if you find finely-carved South Asian teak like this, odds on it's a laser-cut piece.
    03:50 With all the paint on it, especially inside the bowl, I don't see how it can be a piece other than decorative. The paint would wear with the first thing you tried to grind in it.
    04:25 Pass, pass, pass. They rurnt it for ya.
    04:58 Uh-uh. The other was a Mandarin duck; this is a wood duck. (We got the latter down here, wild.)
    05:26 Meh. They're aping Franciscan Apple Blossom, and not well at that.
    07:56 Cigar boxes of that size are surprisingly salable, provided they can hold 4x6 or 3x5 notecards. At those sizes, they make GREAT recipe boxes. (I have one in my own kitchen from the mid-80s, which once held Armas del Casa Prado cigars.)
    11:43 That ain't a HALF bad kettle! My only strike against it is that it appears to be chromium plated, but that's just my copper-kettle snobbery talking. Again, I think you're looking at a teak handle which isn't to be sneezed at.

  • @MissDickens

    In regards to the sunscreen, 5:50 my daughter has very sensitive skin too. She is as fair as the brightest moon, due to her Irish heritage, so she really needs sunscreen. We have been to many dermatologists and finally found one of the very few pediatric dermatologists in our state. (Adult dermatologists are not aware of some things that children's ever changing bodies experience.)
    She recommended Blue Lizard sunscreen, a mineral based sunscreen which has been a Godsend. It is a bit expensive and it isn't sold everywhere but it is completely worth it! The bottles have an interesting feature, they turn blue if exposed to UV light. Amazon has it if you can't find it locally.

    I have a coconut allergy. Many sunscreens contain coconut oil. That might be what Ashton is allergic to. If I use a lotion or soap that contains coconut oil I breakout in a rash or hives.

    My daughter has a sunscreen allergy too. Blue Lizard is the only one she can use and not break out.

    The wooden piece is for incense! Like those sticks poke one end in and light the top…
