I am always finding rusty ones,, I didn't realize you could just spray with lacquer or something and seal the rust, Might try that.

I love milk glass, too, and know what you mean about it being hard to photograph. Have you tried the "macro" feature? On my camera, it is a little flower icon. And your picnic basket is a fun find, too! You'll enjoy using it, I'm sure!Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16819485082242629764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284925404991319330.post-33835420184996613092010-06-14T20:10:36.868-05:002010-06-14T20:10:36.868-05:00I love the picnic basket!I love the picnic basket!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17339720700155067520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284925404991319330.post-47709317069617612082010-06-14T18:51:25.122-05:002010-06-14T18:51:25.122-05:00I like the stool and the picnic basket.
