On the way back from the grocery store yesterday I stopped at a yard sale. I found this old ironstone gravy boat for one dollar and brought it home to play with.
Good Morning Laura, I love you little ironstone pitcher, and using it for floral arrangements is such a lovely idea. Your photos are beautiful and make me happy.
I love your form of entertainment, Laura. I just can't decide whether I like the pink flowers or the white flowers better :) p.s. thanks for the link to that dreamy slip
Beautiful! I am loving ironstone these days too. Found two platters this week at garage sales for a couple of bucks apiece. I think my collection is getting a little out of control but I can't pass up one of those crazed pieces! Have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend. Jane
hi laura, so pretty, both the gravy boat & the flowers! found an estate sale among a neighborhood garage sale on friday and what goodies they had! left with an armful for under $20! most items were around $1-$2. going back today with some friends,just for fun. have a wonderful mother's day! judi ;)
Dear Laura, Flowers just look so lovely in a white container and your $1 gravy boat sets them off a treat. Such beautiful photographs....it was well worth a dollar !! Have a great weekend Laura. XXXX
So pretty! For just one Dollar! Thats fine :o) In some countries in Europe we have Mothersday tomorrow - so I wish you a happy Mothersday, too, dearest Laura!!! Hugs, Traude :o)
Laura...white ironstone...another one of my weaknesses. I swear you live inside my head, LOL!!! Wishing you a happy and fun-filled Mother's Day weekend!
Oh my! The treasures you find! And for a dollar - wow. Can't wait to see what kinds of things you have collected for me! I am so excited! Jamie V in MT http://rem-nants.blogspot.com amzanioli@yahoo.com
Grateful and content...
...life long collector of objects with history and soul; discovering my creative self and sharing bits and pieces along the way...
To live content with small means.... To seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion.... To be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not rich.... To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly.... To listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart.... To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never.... In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common.... ...........this is to be my symphony.
Thank you to all the kindred spirits and kind souls who take the time to leave a comment......Your support and encouragement are deeply appreciated.....I read each and every message and as time allows, do my best to reply.
