The other day I stopped at a thrift store on my way home from school to deliver a vast quantity of leftover lost and found from the school lost and found. Kids. Good grief. How do they loose their pants? Anyway... since I was there, I thought why not have a look? Oh My Goodness! Am I ever glad I did because I found these three beauties. Sugar, flour and pepper Jadeite shakers. Eep! Squeal! Now I just need to find the salt! It reminds of a series of tv ads from a bit ago where the salt content of some food was reduced and the little animated pepper shaker was crying while looking for his buddy, Salty. I put a link to one with the sad Salty character. But I digress.
And a quick scrounge in the fabric and notions... zippers at 25 cents a pop and some really lovely vintage cotton. It is a lovely weave and weight. Happiness in a thrift store. Linking up with Cindy for Random Thursday...
nice finds for sure!
