Hee hee....just kidding!<br /><br />I wouldn't say I collect turkeys, but we do have a platter and a few figurines. Mainly I do more of a cute Pilgrims and Native American stuff for Thanksgiving more than turkeys. To be honest though, we just started putting up Christmas stuff today, so Thanksgiving is rather neglected at my house.<br /><br />Hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving next week!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07355964629556443461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6910839235160715770.post-58824203073716567852011-11-18T21:34:26.084-06:002011-11-18T21:34:26.084-06:00I've got a few vintage turkey candy containers...I've got a few vintage turkey candy containers that I like to pull out this time of year and one red ware turkey platter.

Then when I got to the bottom I saw where you said they were indeed candles! What a fun memory. Maybe I need to scout around for my mom's in some forgotten box!
