I do. I do. I am addicted to junking. I stop at every Goodwill in town (4 of them) and at least 2 of the 4 ARC Thrift Stores at least once per month. I chase garage sale signs. You would laugh if you could hear the goings on inside my head! I try to resist and just tell myself I have PLENTY of Stuff at home and that I should Go shop in my own Garage already! Well today Goodwill won! At first I wasn't finding anything and I thought that was okay. Until I spotted these:
Universal Ballerina Rose Plates. There are four dinner size plates. I got all excited and begin searching through all of the dishes as I didn't want to miss one piece. I thought what if I find a matching cup & saucer! I did not. Here is the stamp on the back of these plates:
I would have been happy to just bring home one of them! They are so pretty!
While looking for more of the Rose plates I found these two Vintage French Arcoroc Pink Glass plates. I was happy with my Goodwill finds, but drove away feeling like I need to work on this "addiction." Next time I'll shop in my own Garage!

Hi Jocelyne,
ReplyDeleteWe don't have a lot of thrift stores here but during the spring and summer months, there are garage sales everywhere. I'm glad you found those pretty Ballerina plates and what can I say? I love your French pink glass plates! Good job! Thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day.
Autumn blessings,
Sandi
Hi Jocelyne:
ReplyDeleteGlad you found some good stuff. There is a lady in - I think Washington but not sure who finds incredible things at her Goodwill. I can't even believe the teapots, etc she finds. Her blog is Karen's cottage and castle. Check out what she finds. I mostly buy clothes and tins at the Ark. So glad you shared your goodies!
The first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem, Jocelyne. Perhaps we should start an online support group for our thrifting addiction. Hee!
ReplyDeleteDear Jocelynn:
ReplyDeleteThanks for your sweet comments. I apologize if I already told you but I own the King and Queen (1939) cup and saucer from your booth! Thanks for being a customer and friend! God Bless!
