Took a side road on the way home today and came across this crumbling house. Will go back when I have a little more time. So here is a little tease for now.

I love that typewriter!

What are those red things on the right hand shelf in the kitchen?

Wow, the floral wallpaper stayed in pretty good condition considering... Nice find!

Went back after work today to find out for you.

They were to bottle tops of some old glass beverage bottles, Tropicana juice bottles.

Bonus extra pics from today. It was getting dark while I was there, I had wanted to get more.

I really bet that this was one cheery mother f'n place in its days. So many colors.

One of the few times I've considered taking something, those wooden hangers. That's how cool I am, I want the hangers. lol Also, I remember the days of relying on those in wall heaters like in this pic. Those were the days.

Even though I was a little nervous because I could see through the floor and the roof in a few locations I went up the stairs this time. Glad I did. Not much stuff there at all, but this must have been a shared sleeping area for siblings. One half was painted pink, the other half was painted blue. I thought that was great.

I might go back again one day. It is a crappy place, but I felt good there. Some places just have a happy vibe to them.
