I stopped at the Teen Challenge Thrift today, just because it was there. It's never a sure thing, but today I struck gold. Or actually, wicker. 5 feet of it. I'm betting it's from the 1940's, and was used to hold flower arrangements for a wedding or funeral. I'll eventually use it at my funeral, since I can assure you that there will never be another wedding. At an estate sale, I scored the following:
This perfectly blue muffin tin cost a quarter. I'll say no more.
This is the opposite of a die-cut. Is there a word for that? It's a monogram, cut out of thin metal, perhaps tin. It also cost a quarter. It's the 2nd most fabulous thing I saw all day. And this is the first...
A sweet vintage pottery girl, holding her arms in the most fetching way. She left her skirt at home. I love her for that.

What great finds!! Penny
you did way better than I did today.....quite an assortment!
Wow! Those are all wonderful finds!
I have never gotten that lucky at a thrift shop, I love the little pottery girl! karen....
Oh! Oh! Oh! So lovely.
Lucky girl! If I'd been at those same sales, I'd have been giving you dirty looks for getting those goodies before I saw them. Unless.... I got to them first. Then you'd be giving me the dirty looks. LOL Those are some really neat things! I'm not giving any dirty looks, but I am about envious. ;-)
Great finds! The girl with the wire skirt is FAB!!
A muffin tin with a handle?? And in blue?? Lucky you!!
You really found some wonderful and unusual items! I love the muffin tin! I hear you on 'no more weddings' !!
hugs, Linda
25 cents?? Really?? Unbeliveable!
Great scores...
Wow! Never mind that you "stole" them. Just wow because they are so cool. Lucky girl.
Love the muffin tin. Great scores:)
Me too on the "no more weddings"--if hubby goes before I do, I'm selling everything and moving into a cave. In the meantime, I'm jealous of you finding that muffin tin. Not completely jealous, since what would I do with a muffin tin in a cave?
