Some recent finds

This has been a brutal winter for buying. The estate sales have been very poor and few and far between,due to the weather. I did however,get some nice things in the past couple of weeks. Some I forgot to take a picture of and they are already gone. So here are some pictures of my finds.

I really like turkey red embroidery. The cat cardboard cutout has a cat all dressed up and her hat box is labelled "Miss Alla Lone".



This is a sweet bench made from an old cottage style single bed. The flower detail is lovely.

I got some Victorian linens and I put them on here before I finished with them. The nightgowns are washed not ironed,and the sheets are not washed yet. I have 2 sets of them.


 These milk glass pitchers are very heavy and incredibly detailed. Perfect for lemonade or water. The last pieces I will take to the garden sale in Niagara on the Lake.

So even though I say it hasn't been a good buying winter,I have found some nice items for the summer sales.
