Saturday Shopping with Marye

by Marye on June 21st, 2008

O.k..we have a great sunny day and alot of window shopping to do.

One of my favorite things about the Internet is the ability to window shop with out spending a dime, any time I want night or day.  There are antique stores, auctions sites, and craft malls all available at my fingertips. YAY!  No driving, no parking, no crowds!

I was at the thrift store yesterday.  This has to be my favorite place to pick up props for my blog images. I got three vintage items for 99 cents each, plush a couple of books for school, plus a book on romantic living, which I am looking forward to reading this afternoon.

You will probably be seeing this little pitcher in my images alot!

This is a tiny teacup.  SO pretty!

And this sweet plate.

Now, let’s check out what else is available!

A Victorian Bride’s Bowl in pink and silver is amazing.  I love Ruby Lane Antique shops!

This pair of figural candy dishes would probably not fit in the decor at my home but they are just gorgeous!

Can you imagine pouring your favorite coffee in the morning from this pink and white Staffordshire coffee pot? Sigh.

I have collected Depression glass for a long time but never knew there was such a thing as a mayonnaise compote!

Think pink today, I guess.  Here is an amazing set of 8 teacups and saucers. From the 1840s.

HAve I all ready pointed out this lusterware tea cup to you? The outside is jade green and the inside is copper. I love this!

If you collect kewpies you will love this child’s tea cup!

Pink and white Limoges chocolate pot with cups. There is nothing more I can say than that!

Flow Blue is a favorite collectible and this pitcher is a great example! Here is another that I love the handle on.

So, what did you like best? I love the chocolate pot but the green and copper teacup is beautiful…I think those two are a tie for me.
