Hi everyone!

Time to share those finds (past or present) for the week. It's always interesting to see your new collection or find.

Skyler, Have a wonderful vacation!

This bouillette lamp -- not sure where to put it but it was only $7 -- I'm sure I'll find it a home!

A necklace made from watch parts -- it was a gift from DH who found it in a glass case at one of the antique malls.

It's got the great inscription -- I'm a pushover for engraved silver things!

Bits of blue and white -- a sugar bowl in Blue Italian, a creamer and sugar in asiatic pheasant and the cutes little "compote" -- just perfect for one!

Wow Martha,

You were busy-crossing state lines for your finds-how fun! Love them all especially the engraved tray. Don't you wonder the lifestyle of the previous owners? Imagine them using that tray too.

Great Finds!

Martha you get the very best stuff! I love it all and am jealous of the places you must shop!

I got a big batch of baby clothes which I am giving to my sister for her twin grand babies or they can be doll clothes for the older girls. They are truly vintage/antique and many hand knit/crocheted. Plus a lovely lace pillow cover and a crocheted table cloth which I am keeping for me. Oh 8 aprons I am also keeping.

Wow - great finds again!

I "found" floor space in the garage. Sold a couple of tables on CL, waiting for responses on other items too. Really need to clear things out so that the kitchen remodel can get underway...

Great finds Liderhof!
My goodness! I am not a sunflower fan (of that flower painted on things) BUT, that carafe is wonderfully done and FREE is the best price!
Your finds are incredible, makes me want to build a huge china storage area just to be able to bring home some finds myself! You make it look easy and fun!

As for me:
I have something to post, but am busy this week, so I will have to get to the photos later.

Love this thread, thank you Beau's Rose for keeping this going while Skyler is away. Smile
