Vintage Avon

We all remember Avon, right?  My Avon memories include my mom, small magazines, the kids section in the back, and fruity smelling lip balms.  Each Christmas, my parents would hang stockings on the fireplace and mine would be stuffed with kids creams and lip balms in different scents and colors.  

So you can imagine the excitement I felt when I came across a collection of Avon cologne and aftershave bottles!  I took pics for your enjoyment:

What an awesome find. :)

And I have to add, I *love* the bathing suit photos you posted. Now that I've had a baby, it's no bikini-wearing for me, so those suits are drool-worthy. :D

My dad has a bottle that looks like a car. My mom said she got it from Avon a LONG time ago. LOVE it! *Chrissygee from swapbot*
