      I've started collecting here in Texas and I have paid anywhere from $18 tin bank glove to $45 for standard size with the oceans being black. The traditional globes I see in antique malls for around $35.

    Now I am absolutely KICKING myself for passing up three globes at a garage sale last weekend. Boo! These photos are full of great ideas! New to your blog, and off to have a look around!

    So nice of you gals to stop by!
    Frivolitea- i paid about $7 for the big globe. But i've heard they are becoming a little pricey. i looked up what they go for new and i couldn't find any that were less than about $50. Apparently the trend is catching! :)
    Kim- bummer! although now you don't have the burden of finding a place to put them!~ lol :)
