A little shabby a little romantic..


I made two of these beautiful jewelry holders this morning. I salvaged some old china plates, one small and one large, and placed them between a silver candle holder. I just think the result is lovely.There is just something about rummaging and thrifting and putting together a creation. Old things gaining new life.

More Flea Market Finds..

I found this lovely little stack of vintage diner ware plates at a flea market this morning! They are made by Syracuse and I am researching the name of the pattern. I have found a few on ebay calling it "black lace"
These were spotted at a vendor's booth that was spilling over with diner ware. He was such a friendly guy, telling me how he hates winter and is enjoying the early arrival of summer. [It was over 80 degrees in Eastern Pa. this morning!] He and his "buddy" practically bought an entire diner's worth of dishes, so he was willing to bargain. I only wish that he had the dinner sized plates. These are the desert size. All in all, they are a great find, which I may have a hard time letting go of and putting into my shop!
