Little Lavender Mason - 4/2/2007 10:23:20 PM    Yooper14 Posts: 313 Joined: 4/25/2005 From: Ohio Status: offline          Boy is this wamr weather ever nice!  The digging is just starting to heat up again!!!  And here's a tip for those of you who like to dabble in more than one hobby.  When I do some sifting, I sift into a container I can take home with me.  At the end of the day I have a nice package of beautiful black dirt to use in my garden... Anyhow, I posted this over on the "what is it" forum, but thought I'd show it here.  I think it must be common, but it's not in my books.  It's a little lavender MASONS 3 fl oz jar.  It's all full of bubbles, has an irregular base on the inside, and a dimple all the way around the lower shoulder.  I don't think it's a Mason's Fruit Jar...looks more like a polish.  I dug it fairly deep, so the color is true, not sun. Any ideas... Attachment (1) _____________________________ "Hegel was right when he said that we learn from history that man can never learn anything from history." - Shaw Yooper Post #: 1
