This Weeks Treasures

Boy, I don't know how many more weeks I can take finding all of these goodies like this. First of all, it's really getting hot around here and I don't do "hot" real well. Secondly, I am running out of room to store them.

Anyway, on with the treasures. This week was fantastic for silver and silverplate. I think I got six platters plus some gorgeous silverware. A pretty wooden tray to paint on, three cream colored pieces of pottery - not McCoy but still really neat pieces that will fit in with my McCoy.

Found quite a few pretty dishes...

some gorgeous blue plates edged in gold, some saucers with a navy and gold band around the edge and three darling purple transferware plates (the purple are not old - but still pretty)...

One of my favorite sellers was there with her little packets of odds and ends of vintage lace - I love these for pillows and projects, some red and white vintage crocheted potholders and a stack of vintage hankerchiefs....

the yellow peeking out on the left side is a McCoy planter...

some vintage flowers, a flower girl basket to trim and some old fashioned ticking....

some really sweet old vintage dishes, a clock, a book rack and an Americana piece full of metal Americana doo-dads!

Probably my favorite of this haul is the silver and the set of six plates with the blue floral border.

Enjoy!

More Goodies From Last Weeks Shopping

Wanted to share with you a few details of some of the rest of the items I got shopping last week.

This gorgeous piece - veggie dish????? - is so pretty. It has this beautiful teal colored design and some gold. Alot of the gold has worn off - especially on the handles which meant it was used and loved. It is stamped on the back Violets J&G Meakin, Hanley, England and measures 13" x 8". Can you imagine putting this on your dinner table and using it?

These cute little ash trays and holder are stamped Original Napco China. Each has a different motif on them.

A beautiful teal blue egg cup. You may remember that I have a set of cups that match this. This has no markings of any kind, but, it is exactly the same pattern of the cups that I have.

Another pretty platter.

A set of six saucers with a dainty scalloped edge. They have had gold on the edges at one time but most of it is worn off.

Don't know what this is but the little squirrel is so cute!

A pair of crystal ash trays. Don't know what has gotten me started on ash trays. I guess because you just don't see them much anymore - for that I am thankful!!

A precious set of tiny, tiny china dishes. There are odd numbers of pieces and some extra lids but oh so cute in miniature.

This piece has no markings but is amazingly beautiful.

Enjoy!
