Busy Saturday Flea Market FInds

First frost this morning.  Fall is really here. It was a packed day today.  Starting off this morning with a school bottle drive then dentist, groceries, fish and chips with Husband and oh, a couple of thrift stores!!!!

I will start off with a couple of vintage sheets that my lovely Aunty brought me when they came for Thanksgiving dinner last weekend.  How is that for a hostess gift?  Perfect gift for me, that's for sure!  And they are both lovely and new to my collection.


What about this lovely depression glass creamer?  I am a sucker for depression glass and have a nice little collection in pink.  I was very excited to pay only $3 for it even thought the cashier at the thrift store thought it was way too high a price for a little old creamer.

I found this some time ago but have it out now because it is fall.  The squirrels are everywhere in the nut trees and I just love this little trinket box.  The only labelling it has is "hand painted" on the bottom but it is quite lovely and vintage!  I think I paid about 50 cents for it. Total find!


Many, many years ago, I bought my mum a glass hen dish but it has since broken.  I had picked it up in an antique shop but look what I found today at the thrift store!!!!  So exciting!



A pickle dish for Husband who does love pickles!


And 2 yards of lilac striped quilting cotton for me for only $1.99!!!!



So there you have it.  This weeks flea market finds!  I will be linking up with Sophie's Flea Market Finds and Apron Thrift Girl's thrift share Monday.  Check out all the goodies!
