SUNDAY ANTIQUING


I LOVE my new little wire stand! Got it a few Sunday's ago at Black Rose Antiques & Collectibles. This place is awesome! Love it! It's huge and loaded with great stuff! It's located within a mall so it's open mall hours... til 9PM! Located in South Mall, 3300 Lehigh Street in Allentown, PA. Even though I've been there many times already I still have yet to bring my camera! Next time! Oh, and the wire stand... $6.00! Yay!

OVAL RESTAURANT PLATES


More from my restaurant/hotel china collection. I love oval plates and also odd pieces like these celery dishes. I got the top oval plate from Antique Haven in Riegelsville, PA, which is one of my favorite places, and it says Joy Yoeng... probably from a cool old Chinese restaurant... and the middle plate from Browns Diner was purchased at a yard sale for 50 cents! I was very pleased with that purchase since I had seen the same plate at Atlantique City for $75!

SALT & PEPPER


Another collection... salt & pepper shakers! Over the years I have collected many... and then ended up selling off most of the collection to make room for other stuff. I kept a few favorites like these!

These colorful children's dishes belonged to my mom! Fun 1940s blue depression glass set and colorful opaque glass plates, cups and saucers. Love them! Thanks mom! :-)

FLOWER POT HOLDERS


Fun wire flower pot holders and vintage wire shelves are a great way to display colorful pottery. I love finding these at yard sales... each of these was under $1.00! :-)

PINK!




Flamingos! This is my very first collection! I don't really look for them anymore but if I see one at a bargain price I'll probably buy it! I have since sold most of this collection but kept my favorites. At one time I would buy ANYTHING with flamingos on it but I have gotten picky and now only stick to the vintage pieces... just the statues. Love them!! Love pink!
