Ladybug, Ladybug, fly away home....
your house is on fire, and your children will burn.
Except little Nan, who sits in a pan, weaving gold laces as fast as she can!"
In parts of Northern Europe, tradition says you get a wish granted if a ladybird lands on you.
In Italy, it is said by some that if a Ladybird flies into your bedroom, it is considered good luck. In central Europe, a ladybird crawling across a girl's hand is thought to mean she will get married within the year. (wikipedia.com)
This compact belongs to cavewoman's mother.
It is the ladybug compact from Estee Lauder.

Hi Toya, unfortunately this compact is not sold by Lauder anymore. Try You Know Where if you are a bidder on that auction site!
Wow, I love this one too. I love how simple yet elegant this one is.
Great stuff Cavewoman! Would you consider talking to me on my podcast about your compacts?
Oh, how cute! Love it.
Carla, what is a podcast? I'm so tech-challenged!
Yes, you can contact me by sending your email address to our Annie. I will write back to you.
Toya: I thought of you instantly!!!!
BTW: Patti is talking about Eb*y.
Carla: I will pass your email to you Patti. Mine is annieytown@yahoo.com
Tessa: It is so adorable in real life.
PattyG, I think I got this for my Mom about 6 years ago, but I got it at the Lauder outlet so there is a possibility that it is older than that. I love the fact that the Lauder counters have refills for these compacts, Isn't this adorable? My Mom has a 'thing' for ladybugs!
