My finds at Salvation Army..and some changes


Well last time I took Mom to the Doctor's I ran inside Salvation Army and found a few things ... Like two of these little saucers which I have been needing for quite some time now.. was really glad it was dollar day on plates. They are old Japan and they match my cups perfect...

                                     I have never seen this Madain Japan,  First time ?

 Here's my cup and I love the match, It was quite exciting there were actually 3 but the other on had a chip on it. I actually should have kept it... to use for Mosic tile..So now I can use these for tea..


Here's is the other little piece I found not sure what it was used for but it's from Holland.. I thought like crackers if you want or cookies things like that. ..

I also found another Bell, which I love it was only $1.39 I have one already but it's just a little bit different. I was so happy to find this.. The cashier liked it to.. So with this it inspired changes in the kitchen.
I re-did the kitchen shelve and table as well ..

I changed everything to straight Blue & White and I love it all. before I had some Turquoise..
One of my favorite things is my Calico cow...that I found several years ago for a couple of dollars actually my daughter saw it and told me..


I later found several bowls at a Garage and she had two egg cup and something else but she didn't want to give me a deal and at the time I didn't have the cash on me... I later went back and they had closed down forever...I was ever so sad... but I got the bowls..

I changed the Tea Pots as well..

One of my first Tea Pots I ever ordered..


A vintage Table cloth and Blue & White checkered mats.. Sadly it is starting to wear it's getting a tiny hole on one end of it. I have to figure out how to do repairs.. Maybe I can find it online like everything else..
A fresh bowl of fruit... with my new doily underneath..

Vintage Potholders...Well ladies I think that's it for today... wishing you a fabulous day..

  8. Janice,
    Your blue and white china always makes my heart sing. What a great find at the Salvation Army. One time I found a picture there of a girl that was so pretty - took it home with me, and still have it today.

    Love,
    Sheri
