What Made People Lose Their Minds Over Beanie Babies? | Kitsch | Scoop.it
From www.slate.com - February 5, 2015 9:57 AM
In July of 1999, I traveled with my family to Tenby, Wales. The town is said to be picturesque, but I have no memory of its scenery—except for a small toy store we passed on our drive in. As soon as we settled into our hotel, my sister and I...

Busy Hands from the 1950s – Making TV and Radio Scarfs - Blog - CollectorsQuest.com | Kitsch | Scoop.it
From www.collectorsquest.com - March 26, 2012 3:43 PM

I found this delightful little pamphlet at an antique store and thought it was a hoot! I wondered what the grandkids would say if they called to see what I was doing and my response was “making a television scarf.” They probably would ask to talk to Papa right away, just to see if I was “off my meds.”
