Who can resist those clean and clear yellows, reds and blues? Fill your fridge with glass covered containers from the wonderful 50s and your neighbors will be so envious!

Beautifully decorated potty chair for an adult
At Sandy Antiques in Sandy, Utah. Nicely painted "toilette chair" from another time and era. Cute little child's potty chair next to it.

Fire King Sunrise Swirl 1949-1962
Piece by piece collection. eBay is a perfect place to find groups and individual pieces. The little bowls are so sweet for applesauce, fruit compote or ice cream. Can't believe I found the tray in red. Now have a plastic yellow crackle tray to go along.

Breakfaster!
The forerunner of the toaster-oven! Made in the 1930's by the Calkins Appliance Company of Niles, Michigan. What a little beauty. I regret not buying it! There are several for sale on line for $35 and up.
The Bathroom Sink
I swear this must have come straight from the Bitner Ranch downstairs "powder room". I loved the little shell-shaped soap saver, and the soap slivers that resided there. There was always a dirty bar of Lava Soap for the farm hands and mechanics to "warsh" up with ! The water ran downhill from a cistern which Grandma would occasionally check for snakes or other varmints!
