Some Fun Finds...

  
Today I had some fun finds out thrifting!  Look at these wonderful German spice jars!  Very old, certainly not perfect, and oh-so-lovely! 

  
The blue and brown transferware decoration is delicate and pretty...



I love this transferware covered dish!  The aqua decoration color is hard to find and always a keeper...


A stoneware bowl was another find...



The leaf decoration is perfect for the season.


This old china plate is very delicate and beautiful...
 



I always LOVE finding anything vintage Christmas...but Christmas sheet music is not something I find often!
 



anyone have some hand bells?


Its always a great day treasure hunting!

I am joining~ 
Until next time...
Linda

I came over to thank you for the sweet comment you left for me! And I must say, we would not be good thrifting partners because I would have been grabbing at all of those wonderful things you snatched up! Great finds! And you reminded me that I have some Christmas sheet music tucked away somewhere...just when I was stressing about not having any Christmas to add to my booth space for our store Holiday open house next week! Now I have some inspirtation! Thanks! I'll be following! I love your header - your photography is excellent!
Best Wishes and Blessings,
Amanda

A Cottage Muse said...

OMGosh Linda...what fabulous finds!
My jaw dropped lower with each photo!

she dreams big! said...

I wish I would have started collecting transferware years ago when it was less expensive because I absolutely love it! I'm lucky I've had my McCoy vases for years because IF you can find it now, it is way out of my price range! Why don't we know what will be popular in the future? You found some lovely things!

Lynn Richards said...

Major score! I love those German pots. Beautiful music!
We went to a great sale of an artist of all kinds on Summit. Three days of insanity. My daughter was still going yesterday!
Hugs,

Donna said...

Wow, you really lucked out, Linda! Those spice jars are wonderful, but my absolute favorite is that gorgeous covered dish! Hope you are keeping that one for yourself:) And the plate with the little house on it is just charming!

Queenie said...

Great finds....That plate with the cottage scene on it is so pretty and so is the covered dish with the aqua! I don't ever find much old sheet music either...though I would love to, it would be great for craft projects :)
Fun seeing your finds...
Big hugs,
Queenie

You always have the best luck! the covered dish is beautiful and I just adore the graphics on the sheet music. How fun would they be all framed up for Christmas.
