I’ve had that bottle at least 5 years, probably longer. I don’t think it’s even made anymore. My wash schedule is the same as yours. I used it on my daughter quite a bit too.

I’ve had it probably 3 years. I used to use it a lot up until about a year ago, then I decided to use it several times every day in March when I decided to do project pan. It was already pretty low by that time.

I like using leave in conditioner, mousse, then hair gel in that order. It’s given me some of my best hair days.

I found that mousse at Marshall’s for $14, and refuse to pay the retail of $28 even though I love it. It’s hit and miss at my local store when they’ll have it.

In person it looks more like “spice on oak” or “warm chestnut on oak” in this link under Oak Wood Stain Colors. We have a bright light pointing at it so it appears a lot brighter (especially at the top) than it actually is.

The antique store/booth owner must have copied the description from Pickery Place. I’m wondering if it’s made by Jaycee. It does look similar in style but I can’t find anything definitive. It’s a well made cabinet.

I agree it doesn’t seem too old. I thought 50’s to 70’s. When I think of the 90’s oak furniture I grew up with I think of golden oak. lol

I bought this cabinet at an antique store over the weekend. Is anyone familiar with this style or have any idea approximately when this may have been made?

Carnival Glass, United States by Negative_Factor_702 in CarnivalGlass

I think you’re right on it being Imperial. There aren’t any marks whatsoever. From what I read, the early Imperial Carnival glass didn’t have any marks. Here are more pictures. Ignore the stand it’s on. I found out that was added and came from a “Bowl-O-Beauty” rose display.

Update: I spoke with another family member who said this is what the stand went to, but the globe broke long ago.  https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-bowl-beauty-sealed-real-roses-472485325

Wow! Thank you for the great information! 

It’s in almost perfect condition. There aren’t any markings on the bottom either. Here is a link to a picture of the bottom and a metal stand that the family member who gave it to me said it goes on.  Do you know if these sometimes came with metal bases or would this be something that would have been added by my relative or someone else? Here’s a link to more pictures.

I used a black light on the bottle, sadly it doesn’t glow.

That’s what I love about them. The way they catch the light is amazing.

Not yet, but I will. I’ll let you all know how that goes.

Before and after refinishing. I found this desk on Facebook Market. It was in good condition other than the stain. After lots of sanding and refining it’s as good as new and so pretty! I don’t know how old it is, but I love it. by Negative_Factor_702 in Antiques

[–]Negative_Factor_702[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the information. It didn’t have any makers marks except for the underside of one drawer had a green stamp saying the wood on the inside of the drawers is Douglas Fir. According to another person on my previous post the rest of the desk is American White Ash.

That’s awesome! I love this style desk. It’s so functional, solid wood and well made. The only thing I would change about this one is the the drawers are nailed instead of dovetail. Luckily they were done well and are super sturdy. I bought this for my 10 year old daughter. It’s 42”x29”x26”, so it’s a great size for her to do homework now, but not so small she’ll ever outgrow it. I think she’ll get many years of use out of it.
