Flea Market Finds on a Saturday...
We were busy being farmers today. We added a few more pullets to our chickens and had to drive out to pick them up. We brought home some lovely little chickies. Once we got them home, I had to run out for a few errands and just happened to stop at a thrift shop that I have not been to in a long time. I found a fantastic pile of vintage sheets in really great shape! Clever son and his lovely girlfriend were wondering why I had not made them a vintage sheet camping/picnic quilt so I will have no excuses now!
... a nice length of quilting cotton and some lovely snaps and buttons.
...a 50 cent basket with a bunch of odd bits of yarn for 75 cents.
Finally, a pair of lovely teacups. They are really pretty and are just wanting saucers. I have quite a stack of saucers without cups so will find some that go nicely and then they are all set for tea. $1 for the pair. Total bargain.
And those are my flea market finds for the week. I will be linking up with Sophie's flea market finds later today and Apron Girl's Thrift Share Monday. Have a super weekend and don't forget to check out all the other lovely finds.
Good finds love the tea cups. and your fun buttons.
