plus a big platter, a small platter, a big serving bowl, a small serving bowl, a covered tureen, a gravy boat, a sugar bowl and a creamer with a broken handlefor $100. Like I needed more china. But how, how could I turn it down?
I should just quit stopping at estate sales on the last hour of the last day they are running. The deals are too good to pass up.
Am I confessing or bragging? A little of both. Guess what next month's china will be.
I think your motto is "I never met a dish I didn't like."
ReplyDeleteIt is lovely and charming and worth all of your $100 and more. Wish I was going to be there too!
ReplyDeleteoooohh... but it's so purrrrrtttyyyy....
ReplyDeleteBut it's such a pretty pattern!
ReplyDeleteI had to stop buying china (especially tea cups - I LOVE tea cups) too because I have no place to display them.
I also like Bakelite, old Pyrex, old crockery mixing bowls, etc.
But this way I get to enjoy it vicariously and my husband doesn't grumble at me!
ReplyDeleteI'm that way about handmade pottery. I can't leave a piece behind at a sale if it feels that good in my hands.
ReplyDeleteI will worry about china when I have a kitchen with more room for it, but gosh that is a lovely set. One day, I will inherit my mother's wedding china, and I will have to fight Em to the death for it.
ReplyDeleteBut for now, I'm a looking more for a tea service that isn't too expensive!
Beautiful china for a lovely table.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty. Stash of a different kind of is hard to pass up.
