My air conditioning is working again!! The kids had a sleep over with Grandma (love that woman.) I had a good nights sleep and I am ready clean, organize, and post! I did a lot of shopping this week with no air conditioning at home I had to get out, right? I have been so bummed that I never seem to get lucky finding full transferware sets. That's what I want! So look what I found two days in a row!!
 |
| Getting a little crowded. Hee hee. Again, it's not that I have too much stuff. It's the house. |
 |
| It's not English, but it counts as a transferware, right? Double Phoenix, Nikko. Could never find the pattern name, but I really like this Dutch scene. |
 |
| I was so tickled to find this. I could only see the teacup as they were stacked on the top shelf. I had that set down in my cart quicker than you can say hoarder. |
 |
| It was easy to find the name of this. It's Churchill, Antique Rose. I know what you are thinking. Didn't I just do a post on having too many dishes? Yes. Shhhh. I also made room in pantry, if you don't remember. :) |
 |
| I am very happy with these dishes. I am going to keep them. I plan on doing a tablescape with them. I will enjoy them and use them when we have people over for dinner. |
So....the best part of my Thursday finds? Each set was $10.99!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love the dishes with the windmill pattern! Great finds!
ReplyDeleteI love your new finds! I have been keeping my eyes open for a good deal on transferware but so far no luck. I will have to keep looking.
ReplyDeleteVery nice finds. You would definitely have to leave home if you were here. The heat is so intense. Trust the air stays on for you.
ReplyDeleteAll I can say as we are thrift store deprived around here! What great collections! Wonderful! Happy VTT!
