Another Successful Thrifting Weekend!

I found some great finds this weekend as I drifted from one thrift shop and garage sale to another.

Even though it was quite hot and humid here in New York, I perservered!

Found at the Goodwill:

12" Robin's Egg Blue Glass Vase - a bit modern for my decor,

but I loved the color too much to pass up!

One more hand painted Italian dish for my kitchen.

Have I mentioned I adore hand painted ceramics,

whether it is italian, portuguese, mexican or french?

A Great Yard Sale Cache:

Yesterday I went to a yard sale that was just closing up for the day.
The woman there was selling her grandmother's house and wanted to
get rid of everything that had not been sold earlier in the day, so she
gave me a big box and said to go ahead and fill it and she'd give me
great price. I think you'll agree that $2.50 was a great price! She told
me I was doing her a favor by taking what was left over.

Some of the pieces have chips, but that doesn't matter because these
pieces I am keeping for myself, rather than for my Vintage Etsy Shop,
which is usually why I am out vintage hunting, to bring great finds to
my Etsy customers.

Another hand painted ceramic pot with lid to add to my kitchen collection.

Gourgeous yellow ceramic basket. I will use this out on the front porch as a planter.

Even with a few chips on the bottom that you can't see, I fell in love

with this basket weave Spode ironstone platter! So beautiful!

Not sure this is Majolica, but it is from Portugal and it is fabulous!

Have a great week!
