Vintage Finds

I had rather a lucky, vintage find, weekend. The weather again was glorious and that always puts me in the mood to have a wander round my favourite places. I went to the usual junk/antique shops but couldn't see anything that appealed to me but on my walk back home I noticed the local church had a Jumble sale, if like me, you are always on the look out for items that are unusual or different this is the place to go.
I have been on the hunt for one of these crock-pots for a while, good for winter stews.
I'm always on the look out for these, this one has lovely pale green paint.
A glass etched decanter, minus its lid, but I wanted it for flowers anyway so that doesn't matter.

Very starched linen.


Lovely old weathered flower pots, they do have a tendency to break in the frost but lovely all the same.

  8. What great finds!

    I love to go to church rummage sales---many here {South Dakota, USA} call them "Grandma's Attic" sales for some strange reason. But it seems that some of the church sales just have the best stuff!
