September ended up being a good vintage-finding month for me, after the summer being kind of a bust. Would you believe, I found all of these goodies (minus the bowl of apples that my mother gave me from her tree) all in one day!?
The first flea market of the 2018-2019 season began on September 9th and I scored a couple of fun items including this flour sifter...
...and this Ladies' Home Journal from June 1939.
Then it was on to Vintage City and I couldn't believe it had been since February since I'd stopped in to say hello and to treat myself!
I can never pass up the Apple Pear pattern and these little mixing bowls were calling my name!
These antique hair combs will be perfect to wear next summer during museum tours. They are large combs which is nice because the small ones just don't cut the mustard when it comes to keeping my hair in control. And it's always nice to have a really white pair of gloves, that fit well.
I picked out a package of birthday candles to go along with the box I already had at home, when Marla pointed me in the direction of a Tiger box of candles. Can't pass up a neat-o favor from ESSO Gasoline! "Put a tiger in YOUR tank!"
Now, along with the little blue ones I had at home, I now have three boxes of birthday candles and THREE makes a COLLECTION! Yea!
One of the first things I spied was this Silver Birch tea cup and saucer. It is my Grandmother's pattern and I have a few pieces from her already and am always looking for pieces here and there to add to my collection.
This fun little drinking glass will look cute on a red white and blue themed table.
And it kind of matches two other glasses I already had at home. Again....Three equals a collection! (I wonder if this could becoming a sickness with me ha!)
And I can't leave Vintage City without a little jar or bottle of some kind, right? This one had candy decorations inside at one time or another. I'm guessing they may have been like little Red Hots.
Well, I think that was about it, and did I ever have fun finding places for all of my goodies!
I hope you're all having a terrific fall! Until next time, have a happy, Vintage Day!!
