Thrift Treasures Part Two

 I loved these vanity jars that I found last Friday at a yard sale....
 Along with this little blue dish and travel case.......It had been my neighbors mothers
and knowing that it had been Marge's means even more to me.
 this sweet little head vase.
 I loved this tray, how cute is she!
 I found this candle holder, which I can see having a new life
in red, maybe blue!
 I picked this up for the cute white frame
 but the collage is kind of growing on me......
 I found this vintage dress for a $1

 This lovely old bucket.....
And last but not least this lovely milk glass hobnail dish
with this silver plated coffee container.....It looks so pretty with
my enamelware.

Today I went for a walk with a friend and we ran into moose, moose, more moose.
right now with the trees just starting to bud  they blend in so well.
They didn't give us any trouble I just wished I had brought my camera.

Hope your week is full of sunny weather and happy meetings!


I'm playing along today over at

  2. You always find the best things...I think I will come and do some thrifting with you some day, that would be so much fun! My favorite of your finds is the silver-plated coffee container. -- Have a great week. xo

  3. Hello...I love the candle holder....very nice white hobnail dish. I have a small vase that would match your dish. Too bad we don't live closer together, because I would promptly make it a gift to you!

  8. You have sooo many lovely vintage things, I'm swooning!
    I remember seeing my mother wearing a pinstripe dress just like your find. It's my favorite.
    I'm new here, but soon, will return. Your finds have captured my heart.

  9. Brilliant treasures!
    Just loving the tray with its pretty picture, and love that galvanised bucket too!
    Sounds like an exciting walk - the only wildlife we come across on our country rambles are rabbits!!
    Happy day to you!

  11. Oh, how pretty - and your enamelware in the last photo is just wonderful! Do you mind me asking what the going rate is in the US for those French enamel utensil holders? I keep waiting for one to fall within my price-range over here, but it hasn't happened yet...
