Sounds like it might be a butter dish cover. You know, for the ones that are sticks of butter. If you can't find a glass bottom for it, you could always cut a piece of wood to use as a base and maybe just put some silk flowers in it for display. So fun to run across pretty glass items at the TS--I always check that section too. Luvs

if it's clear glass, make a tiny holiday "scene" in it with miniature stuff to display safely.
Hey, I never said my brain works good. Just glad it works at all.

Sounds like you could come up with something interesting, Jay. Let us know!

weeeeeeeelllllllll, at this moment, it has a dolls teaset on it's doll sized tray under it!!! I do like Karen's idea, and think I will start with a fall arrangement in September! I tried putting my Charming Tails flag flyers under it, for 4th of July, but they are too tall!!! I measured it, and it is 3 1/2 by 7 1/2 inches. I can't imagine what it may have been in it's prior life...it's a bit big for butter unless it was a 1 lb. block...all one piece.
Thanks for cheering me on!!

If you collect thimbells, they would look nice highlighted under the glass. At christmas you could display some of the tiny wooden ornaments from germany that comes in to TJMAX and Marshalls around Oct, Nov.

For a girly look, you could display a nice bracelet opened up under it on top of your bedroom dresser, even a few lovely rings lined up would be pretty. Collection of broaches, (cut a strip of velvet for the jewerly to lay on)...Basically anything tiny can be highlighted under glass...

Jaybird, Your glass dome sounds very pretty. Everyone has given you some good ideas for items to display in it. The tiny tea set sounds perfect with it. Congrats on finding such a nice goody.

I LOVE the bracelet idea....thank you Judith!!!! My DD makes jewelry and has made me a number of lovely bracelets. I also have quite a few of my grandmother's rings, so that would be cool too!!! Y'all are amazing!!
Thank you!
