Hi! I'm just curious. Are you using authentic carnival and depression glass?? Or (hopefully) reproductions? xox

Both. So far only carnival & depression that aren't valued high/low resale value. :)

  @Jill Smith BTW Carnival and depression glass go up and down in value. Prices for some are low d/t the economy. Save some if you can, your grandchildren will thank you! xoxo

@ Valerie... Hi. Thank you for the 'hook up'... Don't you just love repurposing?? Too much fun!! Yes, we have window art too, just haven't posted pics yet. ...Our main thing is chalk painting furniture... lol :) This glass art is relatively new and something that we do on the side...

I will take the carnival glass off of your hands -- very pricey and highly collectible so I would leave it in its original state.

I saw someone break all of it apart in different sizes, some left in tact and glued in the panes of a empty window and hung!! it's like a sun catcher!!

I have thought of something else. If you installed glass shelves in front of one of your existing windows (one that you do not open and shut all the time) you could display them there, and get the benefit of a sun catcher (with all its magnificent rainbows) while keeping the glass in its original state. Provided that the window is not too wide, you could achieve this by putting supports on either side of the widow, and have the shelf across it. I would use a fairly thick piece of glass, not ordinary window glass, so that it can support the weight.

I think this fad is on the decline. People are no longer buying it at craft shows and it has disappeared from flower beds. I love using the carnival glass when I entertain even if that means I only get it out a few times a year.

i am with Sia. it distresses me greatly to see people use antiques to repurpose. i love repurposing, but not using perfectly good antiques. like using a small chest to turn into a sink in a bathroom! that devalues the piece and then the world has lost one more beautiful antique. i love every piece of depression glass and antique i have.. i hope you are using reproductions.

  @Teresa B WOW..LOL didn't know this would cause such heartache.. lol I said that we use pieces that are of NO VALUE!!!!!! I have a ton of TRUE carnival and depression glass that I display in 3 different rooms in our house. I didn't realize that I needed to explain the pieces I posted. But, here it is... The pieces we are using ARE not TRUE depression or carnival... OR IF they are... they have very little value and/or defect of some kind. I have bought and sold Carnival & Depression glass for YEARS.... IN this economy they are not selling anything for what they should be worth... AND thanks to sites like eBay, the value will never be what it once was... I collect steamer trunks too and would never get what they should be worth, these days... with the internet, they just aren't that rare anymore. So, I enjoy them throughout my house... I have 12 total and will be left to our children. Finally, art & beauty...even the value of something, is in the eye of the beholder & purchaser... There are plenty of people that love this art form...and repurposing all those things that end up for .50 cents, collecting dust in a thrift store can be once again be glorious, even if it is in someone's flower bed. ... Happy collecting, crafting & repurposing. No judgment from me... :) <3

  Great reply. Some of these glass pieces…valuable or not, are actually more interesting In a creation. Totems , short or tall bring out interesting beauty from several pieces! So few people really are into antiques ..just for antique sake. I am a “ glassaholic” if I may say so myself. But I am a copier..not creative in myself. And when I see combinations of beautiful glass,I like to think… the glass is happy to be restyled and re-appreciated. (Yup,giving glass a lot of power here I guess! )🤪😁

Jill, these are beautiful. The 'fad' is NOT on the 'decline' either. I was just at a Antique and Collectable Festival and a couple made well over $7000 in a weekend selling just repurposed glass items like your totems. I get many compliments for the 7 I have in my flower gardens. I too use depression glass that I purchased at resale stores, flea mkts and garage sales. Most are cheap, as some of them have chips and cracks and now are worthless. Awesome work, I love them.

  @Linda L Chipped pieces, cracked pieces and pieces that can not be restored are quite different than using perfectly good pieces. As far as the "Fad"? It's Regional. What may be selling in your area may not be selling in another. I'm just trying to clarify and help those who may see these beautiful Collectible pieces and think "Oh let me re-purpose them". Although....If folks continue to do this, the prices will certainly go up. xoxox

  @Jill Smith Glad it's selling for you in Florida. I wasn't being snarky with you. I was pointing out for those that may not know, that Carnival Glass and Depression glass go up and down in value, just as other antiques and collectibles do. Since hometalk attracts many that like to try new things, I was attempting to inform them not to use Authentic pieces that are not damaged beyond repair. As a funny side note: You'd be shocked at the number of valuable collectibles I and my peers in the Antique and Collectible world have picked up at the Thrift, and Fleas for next to nothing. Just because a piece is marked at under a dollar, OR a dollar or two, does not mean it's not valuable. It very well could mean the "Pricer" had no clue whatsoever and slapped a number on it. I LOVE when that happens and it happens quite a bit! ;) Happy crafting to you.

  @Sia@South 47th Not to worry. :) It wasn't so much your comments...and I understood your reply. It was the others that didn't read my statements and that didn't have a clue what I was trying to tell them... And honestly, I don't have to justify anything that I choose to do with my things, to anyone. ;) But, they were using words like "distressed" over what I was doing... And yes, we love when we come upon 'treasures' that are marked really low.. We immediately know that they don't know what they have. But, more and more these thrift stores around here are catching on and with the internet being so convenient, they can look up current values pretty easily. My husband and I are long time 'pickers' and treasure hunters... We collect so many different things 'from days gone by' and treasure them, display them, etc. We never use any piece with value or collectability... :)

  I think they look great! And you can most certainly do what you want with your things! lol! My mom and I shop thrift stores OFTEN just looking for things that we can repurpose! There's no telling how many true antiques we have ruined (if you want to call it that). But, isn't it better to repurpose it than for it to sit on a shelf or in a landfill. I recently caught a little of this for painting and repurposing an old dresser into a buffet. To each his own! Rock on lady!

Being an owner of an antique shop glassware is NOT selling at all!!! A collector of a certain type of glassware may come in looking for something in particular, but 9 out of 10 customers walk by our beautiful display of vintage glassware. Younger folks don't want chochkies on their shelves -- they don't like to dust!!! It is a shame, but it is what it is. I'm not saying repurpose, I'm saying look for pieces with slight blemishes, flea bites, cracks, etc. I would put that in our bargain bin and take any offers just to get them out of the store!

  @Debi McCoy Thank you! In Jill's defense and adding to what you said here, I bought a piece of "good" glass ware at an antique shop like yours for ....3$....so does that make it valuable? It had been there a long time, and was dust covered, stuck away somewhere. the lady of the shop said the same thing, it just doesn't sell. I have a Planter's peanut jar with the Mr.Peanut hat and all on the outside. Looked it up and it wasn't worth more than a few bucks depending on who is selling it! However I always have this fear...this might be reallllly valuable, because I know nada about glass. Just that it is pretty!

I have several milk glass items--one is valued at $675.00 and I paid $10.00 for it at a yard sale. But I would NEVER EVER repurpose any of them.

@jillsmith I have read ALL of your post about them being of little or no value and chipped but I still think it is sad to lose history. Those at one time were cherished dishes to some family. I would never do that to the heritage dishes that have been passed down in the family NO matter the value of them. They may not be worth top dollar but they are still family memories. Although your work is very pretty and many of the dishes may have been found at flea markets and such it still saddens my heart to see what you have done.

  @Sparkles Your opinion... I'm not going to explain myself anymore... I've done nothing wrong. However, I will say this ... IF the glassware that I found, were such cherished memories in someone's family, then how did they end up in a thrift store or flea market? The one's that I own & hold on to and there are many, will be handed down to my girls... and what they choose to do with them will be their own business.. the end.
