Beautiful Blue Glass

I found all of these lovely vintage blue glass canisters (the lids are all glass, also- no plastic) within the space of one week's time.
First of all, I found the smallest one at an antique show in Tuolumne, California.
I found the two larger ones at a yard sale in a mobile home park:
And I found the other large one (sans lid) at a thrift store in Columbia:
Considering the fact that I've been kicking myself for about two years for passing up a big one once at a thrift store in San Andreas (because it was $10), and I paid less than $16 total for all of these last week, I am pretty darned happy about the whole thing.
I seldom see these anywhere except on Etsy and eBay, and when I do they are usually priced quite high, not to mention the fact that you have shipping to consider, as well.
So, any time I am lucky enough find one at a thrift store for a reasonable price, I feel like shouting from the rooftops.
So, yeah - pretty happy with these blue beauties.
