Carmen Miranda Style Cookie Jar

Saturday February 12, 2005
Everyone knows how much I love Target. I go every few weeks just to check out what they have. The Global Bazaar section has some wonderful items! Last time I went I found a small three drawer chest to hold my vintage post cards and greeting cards. Today I discovered two new cookie jars. A terrific looking Carmen Miranda style bust jar that was in their "tropical" aisle, along with a nice looking pineapple jar. Carmen was around $15. and the pineapple was only $13. Great buys for well finished ceramic products.

I was wondering where I could purchase one of the carmen miranda cookie jars. You see, we have one, its on display on a very high shelf. When my daughter was taking it down to paint the wall..the lid fell off and broke.

They are not available any longer at Target, so your best bet would be checking eBay.

If you don’t want to do that, post a want in the Forums on this web site or on Cookie Jar Want bulletin board on The Cookie Jar Net Click on the bulletin boards on the left side of the page.

Email me if you have any problems.
