I was innocently coming home from running some errands on Friday and there were Garage sale signs everywhere, but I resisted!! Until, I saw an Estate Sale sign right on the corner and could see it from the street I was on. I knew it was a sign that I needed to stop!
So I did!
It was a fantastic sale. And yes, I did get all of this very reasonable. You can see the $.25 sticker on the white ironstone pitcher. It does have a small chip, but with something in it, it'll never show.
Look at the gorgeous round mirror. They said it had been in the family for over 100 years. It is 28" round and has the most wonderful frame - not a scratch or chip in it. I'm pretty sure it will get painted. The mirror is in fairly good shape - it has a few bad places in it but to me, that just gives it character!
Look at the detail on that mirror frame!!
I love this little sugar and creamer set with the tray!!
I couldn't pass up this cute little kitten with basket planter. It'll go good with all of my cream colored pottery.
So, in all, I got a mirror, 4 pieces of cream pottery, three red-topped salt and pepper shakers, a blue dish with lid, a piece of silver on little feet, a blue gravy bowl, a little pitcher with green on the top, the big set of salt and pepper shakers and two pieces of jewelry.
Saturday, my sweet husband is taking me over into Arkansas where all of the Arts and Crafts show are this weekend. I'm going to take my new camera and even if we don't hit the shows, I'll take pictures and have a nice, quiet, relaxed day.
Enjoy your weekend.
Till next time, Judy
Judy I would have been grabbing those items if I had been at that sale!!

Hi Judy. I would have snagged up the ironstone pitcher too, cracks or not! I would proudly display it as a loved worn treasure. Love all your divine finds! xo's Pam
ReplyDeleteSo nice to meet you, Judy! We have probably been at Savoy at the same time. We're there almost every Sat. morning. I'm green with envy about your wonderful finds, especially that little pitcher! I look forward to following your blog. Hope you'll be back to visit me soon.
ReplyDeleteSmiles,
Carol
You find such wonderful things, but the wreath in the post just before this is what I call simple perfection. I love transfer-ware and this is such a grand idea. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteYour blogging sister, Connie :)
You did do good!! Of course my favorite is the bling. :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by. Hope you are enjoying your weekend.
You really have a knack for finding the lovliest of things! LOVE that mirror especially - imagine the stories it could tell.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday, enjoy your outing,

Judy, my Mom and dad and my husband and I spent yesterday at War Eagle Mill at the arts and crafts show. Lots of great stuff but also lots of traffic and people. Next spring I will probably go on a week day instead of Saturday. Hey, maybe you can come over and we can go together. :)
ReplyDeleteWow Judy ~ what lovely treasures ~ great finds. Love the sugar and creamer set with the tray and the little salt & pepper shakers are great ~ Have a wonderful weekend ~
ReplyDeleteGreat haul! I can't imagine getting rid of something that's been in my family for 100 years. Who does that? I guess no relatives around to fight over it, perhaps.
ReplyDeleteNice finds! Love the chipped white pitcher.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting me at Delights of the Heart.
You found some great things! I especially love those salt and pepper shakers with the red tops. I have a small collection of them. Here in northern Utah I think we're about done with yard sales for the winter. So sad. Mimi
ReplyDeleteYou got so many great treasures! LOVE that mirror!
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comment on my photo and verse.
Oh didn't you have a great day Judy - you picked up some wonderful pieces.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favourite things to do - poking about in second hand shops and finding a bargain!
Thank you for visiting me too! I hope you'll be back!

Judy, you did find some treasures. It's fun to go thrifting!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a great collection of finds! I find a sale like that every once in a blue moon. The mirror alone was worth stopping for, it's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWonderful finds and prices! I love the blue gravy boat!
ReplyDeleteYou did, indeed, score, Judy! You got some great pieces there. Love the whites. That mirror is great.
ReplyDeleteboy was that a great sale, I come home smiling after hitting the jackpot at a good sale like this. The mirror looks like on we have that has been in my husbands family over 100 years.
ReplyDeleteI just started a new blog and invite you to come visit and follow, please leave comments as well!
