Grandma's Glasses

Posted on 11:01 AM by feeqwfqewef
I am in possession of nearly all of my late Grandma Cotton's glasses, from the late 50's to the 80's.
Some of them are pretty bad and I can't seem to bring myself to get rid of them.

I have a few pairs that are pretty awesome though. So awesome that I'm thinking about have my prescription put into one of them and the other made into sunglasses.

They are, of course, the oldest pairs. Here they are:


Now you'd probably think I'd be making the dark pair into sunglasses, but you'd be wrong. This is the pair I'd like to put my prescription into. I'd like to make the lighter pair into rose tinted sunglasses. Right now they still have Grandma's bi-focal prescription in them and it's pretty hard to see through them! lol!





Everything is about this fuzzy through the bi-focals!




What do you think? Good idea? Do I look silly? Or cute?
