Thats a whole lotta Bakelite


OK I wish is was jewelry but still pretty cool and if I told you that I paid the same amount for a Bakelite brooch would you believe me?  Well its true.  My husband and I picked this up at an antique store up by the cabin a few weeks ago and since I have been a lazy blogger I thought I would post it.  Other than that I have been working on some sewing projects but nothing I wish to share as of yet.  I have also been knitting more wash cloths but am ready to move on to a bigger project.  I also started working on some embroidery something that I have wanted to get into for years and have played with but haven't jumped into a project until now I am also most done and will post results soon.  How about you how are all your projects and summers going?

  4. Do I spy a record player in there? That is awesome! Sounds like you're getting a few little projects checked off your list! :)

  5. Kate O it is a zenith radio and record player from 1952. The front circle is the tuner for the radio and inside is a cobramatic record player. Oh and it works!!!
    So yes BoPeep inside is the cobramatic with adjustable speeds (you can fine tune the speeds on this one not just click it into place.
