Remember last week, when I showed you my goodies from the infamous antiques sale trip? Here's the rest of my haul. Please don't think I spent a fortune on this stuff; nothing here cost more than $21.
Nineteenth-century German red transferware dish. This was my big ticket item at $21. It's really chipped and beat up, but I think it's beautiful anyway.
Milk glass. It's starting to become an obsession. I love all the different shapes it comes in, and that it's so cheap! :)
Small, framed needlepoint flower pictures. A steal at $2. each!
Some more pressed flowers to add to the collection. Someone stop me before I fill an entire wall.
Red Willow pattern gravyboat. What can I say, I just love transferware!
I'm pleased to report that my friend, Robin, is a new convert to antique hunting. She came home with some lovely things, too. This week we are going to a giant community rummage sale. Report to follow.

I love everything you got! I saw someone post once that they put tea lights in their milk glass and it glows very prettily. Cant remember where I saw that but I decided I am going to try it! Of course, I love the transferware, red is my color!
ReplyDeleteAo after looking at your pictures of all your "finds" and the transferware, I finally did it. I made come phone calls and found out which family member has all of grandma's transferware and milk glass and am having it shipped from their storage to my house!! I am so excited. Now out to find that perfect display shelf, table, crate to place them on!!
ReplyDeleteGood haul! I have begun to mix blue and red transferware together. I love the combination...

I have some brown transfewware and it was free from a house my sister flipped. It's in my not too inspired dining room. Your red stuff is too gorgeous. This is my first ever blog experience.
