Hunting And Gathering: Plastic Radios

Looking for a perfectly playful accessory or a pop of color by your bedside? How about a vintage plastic radio in a sherbet shade? I'm smitten with these mid century mod beauties. My sister has a fabulous working condition pink clock radio that adorns her sunny yellow kitchen. Love it! How about the first image of a portable radio displayed with teacups?  What a juxtaposition! I can't imagine a plastic pastel radio not being fun and quirky.

I love your analogies! Back to the Future! Yes.Nuit. And Shanon, Caboodles!! So funny. Thanks for helping reminisce. I don't think I've used the word Caboodles in a sentence for about 15-20 years!! Oh, they are probably vintage now. LOL!!

Thanks for the reminder that I need to get more of my vintage plastic radio collection out of boxes and on display! These photos are wonderful. I always love the pink ones. :)
