Thrifty Treasures Monday

Hello & welcome to another Thrifty Treasures, hosted by Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality. I had another great day/week thrifting a couple of weeks ago...look at all my finds! Topiarys, basket (now painted white & housing doggie toys) a terrarium, rose dishes, hankie quilt, small ironstone tureen, milk glass tumblers, apothecary jar, vintage flash cards, Texas-size muffin tin, napkins, etc.

Love the little glittered tea lights...I got a trio of them for 99 cents! As you can see, the Gibson rose salad dishes were 49 cents a piece & the dinner plates were 99 cents a plate. I need more dishes like I need another 10 lbs but Cielo, @ House in the Roses, sets such a pretty table w/ them that I couldn't resist.

My favorite find of the day were these vintage flash cards!

An apothecary jar, porcelain bride & groom (not vintage but still sweet) & mercury glass candlestick.

Love the detailing on the plastic frames (there's 2, one on top of another) but they'll get a new picture (or quote) inside...I'm not into fruit unless it's to eat.

Love the wire plate stand but again, not digging the fruit so will get rid of this old plate & keep the stand.

I LOVE this terrarium...it's even real glass & not the plexi stuff & it was only $5.

I don't normally buy dishes or glasses in 3's but I could not resist the hobnail finish on these milk glass tumblers. I'm sure that sooner or later, I will come across a 4th on a thrifting jaunt...if not, there's always eBay.

And check out this duvet! It's made out of vintage-looking hankies but I'm pretty sure that it is not vintage. I don't care...I still love it! I've been planning on making a quilt out of some of my vintage hankies...now there's no need, I can use them in another project.

You've already seen where I am using one of the glittered tealight birds in my Feathered Friends post...here's another.
