Kitchen Cream

Last week, I showed you a little covered soup tureen that I got at the thrift store.  I said that I wanted to add it to my creamware collection in the kitchen.  Well, here are a few other pieces I've gathered over the years.  They aren't necessarily creamware, but all sorts of dishes that just happen to be cream color.

The gravy boat above is a modern piece from HomeGoods.  I have a thing for gravy boats -- I think it is the shape that I love.

Here is the shelf above my dish rack.  The green tole tray in the background was a flea market find a few years ago.  It was at the bottom of a pile of very dirty and rusted trays.  When I showed it to the dealer, he named his price: $8.  Score!

The little covered dish with the bird on top was from HomeGoods, and the vase behind it came from a rummage sale.  I think it was $3.

Here is the display above my range.  Don't you love the iron cornbread mold?  It was a gift from my dear friend, Robin.  (If you are reading this, Robin, see how much I love it?  Thank you so much!)  Two more little gravy or sauce boats share the shelf, along with a small Fenton hobnail vase.

Don't you love this little sauceboat, with it's cabbage leaf pattern?  Thrift store, last year, $2.  Whoo-hoo!

This arrangement sits in the corner of my countertop.  The little basketweave dish on the left is Wedgwood.  Because it is cracked, I got it at the thrift store for $4.  The small vase next to it was a rummage sale find:  $1.  And the two covered serving pieces are from HomeGoods.

Finally, the yellow primroses, which smell divine, are from my husband.  He knows I need some blooms to get me through the winter.  No creamware here, but a milk glass urn that I found at, where else, a thrift store for 75 cents.  ;)
