We are still on the hunt for new colors for little I. We are hoping to take her to an insulator show sometime soon. There aren't that many held close to our area though. I have noticed in her collection that there are several shades of blue and teal that are very hard to tell one from the other if they are not in bright light. But for example in the sun light she has one that looks almost neon blue but inside looks rather plain. It is one of my favorites. I am hoping when we make it to one of the shows to see what others have and compare. So far the only thing I have been able to compare them too are ones online and our own. The pictures are wonderful but I have noticed that the lighting that they are taken in directly impacts the color that they appear to be. Issy has a light purple that in picture looks very deep purple. Well, hope everyone that runs by this has a wonderful day.

Working on Issy's collection

Well it has been slow going lately. Been on the hunt for some interesting insulators but found this lovely bottle that says Thomas Edison on the side. Thought it was a nice little find. Issy is as excited as ever about her collection. She is now asking us for certain colors and hopefully we will be able to find them. I am hoping over the summer to help build her a small show case for the ones she likes most. Hopefully it work out.
