Another great week for finding treasures. Lately I have been finding some really good stuff, so good I can't bear to part with anything, just as with all these items, I'm keeping the lot. I don't seem to be able to get rid of anything, not that I'm complaining, it's just that it's starting to get cluttered ....... again.
One of these items I paid more than I normally would for something, preferring to wait until I find the item at a garage sale or in an op/thrift shop, can you guess which item I paid $30 for, which is almost double what I paid for everything else put together.

| What a bounty. |
 |
| In great shape and the perfect place to keep my bread making ingredients. |
 |
| Just love the shape, colour, pattern and crazing, I just love it, it's about a 4-6 cup size, perfect. |
 |
| What a lovely cup and saucer, so dainty. |
 |
| My new herbal tea, teapot and cup. Perfect!!!!!! Now to find a good book. |
 |
| You can never have enough vases, especially coloured glass ones. |
 |
| No markings, but my guess 1950's, Japanese maybe. Just lovely, the colours are lovely and bright. |
 |
| She's stamped Japan on the base so my guess from the 1960's and she is just sooooooo cute. Reminds me of a Beatrice Potter's charater. Just adorable. |
 |
| Another tea towel I hear you say, but this one is special, it is a tea towel piece of art. It is just amazing, I think I might have to frame this one. It is number 966 (I think)/1000. Made by Third Drawer Down (what a great name). |
I'm off to have a cup of tea from my new tea pot using my new tea cup. Enjoy you week-end and be safe.

Fun finds - really like the Third Drawer Down tea towel. Does the signature in the last box say Hildi?
ReplyDeleteThank you, the tea towel is also my favourite. I can't quite make out the signature, I'm going to have to research that one.
DeleteI do love that tea towel. That is something I never think to look for and never find by accident.
ReplyDeleteI also collect table cloths and the two always seem to be located close to each other in thrift shops. I get attracted to the colours and they normally cost 50c to $1.00 at most.
DeleteGreat finds. I love the tea pot. Thanks for sharing at the All Star Block Party.
