Tuesday Tidings

On Saturday,

I had time to take my mom to that funky little shop

that has all sorts of treasures to discover.

This is the signature item of the shoppe.

It has been used for several photo shoots,

including a wedding.

It is NOT for sale...

A collection of lampshades were very reasonably priced at $4 each.

Oodles of books, vintage and modern

can be found awaiting the next browser.

What a cute top for some lucky lil' girl.

Crystal lines the shelf here,

though most items are of a more practical nature.

What a handsome looking pitcher.

Mix-n-match china in a multitude of colors and patterns

just waiting for the right home.

Someday, one of these will grace my home.

Love those utilitarian Hoosiers!

Crocks and bowls can be used for so many different things.

Inside, outside, just about anywhere.

Isn't this an amazing set of dishes?

Jackpot!

One shelf is dedicated to a current interest of mine...

Here's the lil' beauty that came home with me.

Care to take a guess as to what this might be?

Maybe you need a better look.

Here's the inside.

The part with the holes in it lifts out,

if that's any clue.

If you're in the area, stop by 

Orchid Springs Curiousities & Antiques.

You might find something

you just can't live without!
