Saturday Treasures




OH MY GOSH!!!!!!

This morning at a garage sale, I found this McCoy teapot for $4.00!!!!  I was so excited I could hardly contain myself.  I don't know if there was a lid or not but it didn't really matter.  It was just such a pretty piece to add to my collection.  And it was the real "McCoy"!!



Then, I went on the the Tulsa Flea Market.  Found lots of goodies.



I got a huge plastic container (with the doily on top) full of old sewing items, wooden strawberry baskets, a Zip Lock bag full of wine corks, two lamps, a vintage piece of Easter fabric, two darling Singer sewing machine books, and two darling cream colored vases.


So, now I'm off to go "do my thing" with the two lamps I purchased.  I am really having a problem because the Tulsa Flea Market will not be open again until the Saturday after Thanksgiving!!  What am I to do?  Guess I'll just have to go to Canton to First Monday Trade days and hope for lots of good garage and estate sales.



Till next time, Judy

  2. I'd say that is a very nice haul you got there. Flea/Trade markets are so much fun. I need to get out more and do just that.

  3. Awesome finds! Love those old Singer manuals, can't wait to see what you do with the lamps - the tea pot is amazing! Hope you can find somewhere to shop between now and Thanksgiving, that's a long time for us thrifting girls to go without a shopping experience ;) Mary

  7. Treasures, Judy has treasures....

    What a find, my Dad, and Uncles, used to collect McCoy like crazy.

    I must ask him if he had this teapot.

  16. That teapot is the best, Judy! And I'll bet that plastic tub of sewing notions is going to have a lot of wonderful finds inside. The little vases are adorable and will look so pretty with just a small single bloom inside. Thanks for sharing such wonderful 'favorite things'!
