Another Trip to the Antique Mall

So today I went back to the craft and antique mall. I wanted to look at this rocking chair again. But I decided that it wasn't what I was really looking for. So I left but it's still on my mind. I guess because it's old. I love old vintage things. But while I was there I picked me out another tea cup and saucer. When I got home I noticed a crack in the saucer. But this place has a no return policy. So I just have to live with the crack in the saucer. It just reminds me to look more closely next time. This one was only ten dollars also but who wants to buy something that is cracked. Here's a pic of the tea cup and saucer.

Then last night I finished up with dinner early so I decided to do a little shopping. I couldn't find any tea cups to add to my collection but I did find a teapot for everyday use. I don't want to use the one my Mother-In-Law (Mom) gave me all of the time because I just don't want to take the chance of it getting broke. But here is the one that I bought tonight for...$7.99 at Home Goods.

Isn't it cute with the crown on it?

Then I seen this plate to add to my dessert plate collection. My plate collection is very small. This is my third plate. It was only $3.99.

Isn't that dessert plate so pretty? I don't know if you can tell in the pic but the border kind of has a marble look to it. And the trimming is done in a gold color. I noticed that the items that I have been picking out has a floral motif to them. I guess that's what I'm leaning towards.

I know that it must look like I'm a material type of person with these last posts but I'm not. It will probably take me years to purchase an item as huge as my china cabinet. That's why I posted it. I guess because I'm proud of it.

Believe me, this blog isn't in the least about bragging. Like I said before...I'm a lucky girl. =)

Tomorrow I will show you my china cabinet with my tea cup collection in it. I also want to show you the before and after pictures since I cleaned and polished it up. Have a great evening.

Of course....I'm signing off....from Peek-A-Boo Street!
