Remember My Milk Glass Punch Bowl?

Several months ago I was thrilled to find this punch bowl

in Brenham, Texas. It has 12 punch matching cups.

It reminded me of my mother's punch bowl that she used

for many years. Somehow the punch bowl was lost. All that

remained was the pedestal.. or base.

Here is a picture of my mother with the long-lost milk glass

punch bowl. My mother was the ultimate hostess!

There isn't a piece of milk glass that doesn't remind me of

her style of entertaining.

Well... today was a special day for me!

 

I found a punch bowl that is exactly like my mother's!

It did not come with the base, however, that did not matter. I still had my mother's!

The really special part to this was that it came from some of the sweetest friends I have. One of them you may know well.

Laura from White Spray Paint and her daughter, Lauren, are milk glass collectors.

Lauren had purchased the punch bowl sometime back

and because she has other milk glass punch bowls, she

decided she could part with this one. It was displayed in one of her Market Days that she and her mother participate in.

Right away, I got word to her that I would love it if she would set this punch bowl aside for me.

What has probably been about a 15 year quest for this

punch bowl, I am thrilled to pronounce the search over.

Thank you to two very sweet ladies!!
