C is for....

China cupboard full of colored glass collection. I collect all kinds of china and glassware. This cupboard is full of ruby glass.

My Vavo and Tia's used this type of glassware a lot when I was a child and still do, so I got in the habit of collecting it from them. I really like this type of glass because it fits with so many holidays like the 4th of July, Valentines, Christmas, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Patriots' Day; a lot of holidays have the color red as one of their theme colors which makes this color very useful to me.

The bottom part that has closed wood doors is full of green glass and cobalt glass, too. I like it for the same reasons: green is good for Christmas and St. Patrick's Day and cobalt blue goes with any patriotic holiday.
